New Delhi (India): HackersEra will work with automakers to identify and address security vulnerabilities in modern vehicle keyless entry and ignition systems. We will use our team of experts and tools to test the security of these systems, analyze the results and determine any risks. We will then provide the automakers with a comprehensive report of our findings, including recommendations to mitigate any vulnerabilities discovered. In addition, we will assist car manufacturers in the development of solutions to strengthen their systems against potential attacks.
Many new cars come with keyless entry systems, but this opens the door to thieves who can use sophisticated hacking technology to start your car’s immobilizer and drive off in your vehicle within minutes.
Researchers led by HackersEra CEO, , have identified a new attack vector for passive keyless entry and start systems. This discovery was made to inform car manufacturers of a game-changing technique for breaking into vehicles.
In the real world, the “relay attack,” a form of digital theft discovered by researchers at , can be used to exploit a vulnerability in keyless entry and start systems. Initially, the thief will stand close to the car’s owner and use a device to relay the signals he picks up to his accomplice. The other thief gets as close to the car as he can while holding the other device. This is so he can send the signal sent by the first thief’s hacking tool.
Relay module signals are sent to the vehicle, tricking the system into thinking the owner is nearby and allowing entry to the vehicle. Starting the ignition requires an additional relay.
Vikash Chaudhary, CEO of HackersEra, said: “The Faraday bag acts as a signal blocker for your key fob.” This protects against burglary and keyless ignition theft by preventing thieves from intercepting and relaying the key’s signal.
Chaudhary maintains that motorists have no reason to worry in light of the study’s findings. “There are probably easier ways to steal cars,” he says. A “disgusting aspect of high-tech car theft,” he continues, “is that it leaves no signs of forced entry,” making it difficult for police and insurance companies to obtain sufficient evidence of what happened if a thief actually did it. use this method to steal a car. Manufacturers, police and insurance companies should all be ready for this, according to Chaudhary.
The role of car manufacturers in cyber security
Cars are becoming increasingly connected and vulnerable to cyber attacks. This requires car manufacturers, service providers and vehicle owners to take measures to safeguard the safety of their vehicles. By using automotive cybersecurity solutions, automakers can ensure that their vehicles remain safe. Currently providing its innovative services to 15+ OEMs and 10+ vehicle manufacturers, HackersEra deserves our trust.
