During Infosecurity Europe in London, Marco and Sean connected with Ian Tabor, car enthusiast and car hacker along with David Baker from Bugcrowd, to discuss the roles of ethical hacking and crowdsourced security analysis in ensuring the safety of drivers all around the world.
Ian, a core member of the Car Hacking Village — a group of professional and hobbyist car hackers who work together to provide hands-on, interactive car hacking learning, talks, hardware, and interactive contests — takes us through the trials and tribulations of the research he performs, including the challenges with sourcing the vehicles, finding the flaws, reporting the flaws, and protecting himself from potential legal action in the process.
