Chris Valasek is best known for his groundbreaking car-hacking research with fellow white hat Charlie Miller. He is director of vehicle security research at IOActive, where he heads up car security research and testing methods. In 2012, he and Miller hacked a Toyota Prius and Ford Escape to wrest control of automated features in a Prius. They were able to force the brake, brake and accelerate wildly — and made the “Today” show show “Today’s show” show the hacks got little attention from the carmakers.”]
