Digital keys have become a common and convenient way of unlocking electric vehicles (EVs) — but security researchers have demonstrated how criminals can take advantage of this.
Cybersecurity researchers Tommy Mysk and Talal Haj Bakry, who work for tech firm Mysk, have discovered an exploit that lets cybercriminals access Tesla accounts to generate a "digital key" before unlocking a victim's car and driving away. They detailed their findings in a YouTube presentation on March 7.
