Your Tesla Model S Could Be Gone in 1.6 Seconds

Researchers from the University of Leuven hacked a Tesla Model S in 1.6 seconds and successfully drove away with the vehicle. Tesla patched the vulnerability a year later by June 2018. The researchers assembled a 6-terabyte table of codes in order to break the encryption and then bought two radios and a Raspberry Pi computer to hack the key FOB. Tesla paid the researchers a $10,000 bug hunting bounty as well as Hall of Fame honors for their team. The team performed the field research as a proof-of-concept and after finding their experiment successful, they contacted Tesla about the vulnerability.”]
