Gone in 20 Minutes: using laptops to steal cars
A look at how thieves are using laptops to steal the most expensive luxury cars. Many of these cars have completely keyless ignitions and door locks, meaning it can all be done wirelessly. Thieves often follow a car until it gets left in a quiet area, and they can steal it in about 20 minutes. Scary stuff.
Well it was just a matter of time…really any time you use computers to secure something, expect the things being secured to become the target of attackers…you would be much better off using a simple key to lock your car then these new fancy proximity sensors that detect the ‘key’ in your pocket allowing you to open the doors and to start the car…Welcome To CrzyLand
