A high-tech chunk "Tesla Model S". Of course, it is a good target for hackers.

Samuel Lv of the security laboratory "Keen Security Lab (Kinen lab)". Today, I will introduce about possible dangers in daily life.

Mr. San Nie of Keen Security Lab tries to hack Tesla's model S. The model used for the experiment is "Model S P85"

First of all, it is an experiment in a stopped state. There are no people in the model S.

Mr. Lv who said "Researchers operate from there".

Researchers doing hack experiments are waiting at the end of the parking lot.

Along with Mr. Lv's calling "Let's get started", the sunroof of Model S began to open.

Then lights the hazard lamp.

Moreover, I have remotely piloted the electric seat.


To Mr. Lv asking, "Is such a remote control peculiar to this car alone?"

Mr. Nie answers, "The model S on the market is subject to hacking."

"Really? I have a new model S just, but let's do it."

So Mr. Lv brought in a new model S 75D which was face lift.

"Are you ready?"

"Give me some time, I will prepare"

I'm working spreading the notebook PC on the hood.

Another researcher Ling Liu also cooperated.

It seems that work has been completed in a matter of minutes.

Mr. Lv who heard "already already busted" gets into a car of his own with "I knew".

Mr. Lv who mumbles as opening the door "What's this ... ...."

How, in the instrument panel is the logo of Keen Security Lab (Kousei Lab).

Also on the 17 inch monitor.

The 17-inch operation monitor is in a state where touch operation is impossible.

Furthermore, Mr. Nie talking "You can unlock the door remotely."

"Yes, unlock"

The headlight / hazard lamp of the model S lights up, and it seems that the door lock was released.

Mr. Lv confirms that the door lock has been released.

It seems to be happy that "Success is it!", But it seems that it is not a pleasant situation for the model S owner.

"This is the only hacking?" Mr. Lv who gets a further hack.

So far it is just the beginning. "Let's hack a running model S," Mr. Nie started a hacking experiment in running condition.

The day of the experiment was rain. To Mr. Lv talking that the front is hard to see ......

Mr. Nie wipes the window with a wiper as he discharges the washer fluid.

To Mr. Lv asking "What else can I do?"

Mr. Nie urging lane change.

As I changed the lane, the door mirrors were closed. It seems that panic will occur if this can be done during actual driving.

"You can also open a trunk (hatchback) remotely while driving," Mr. Nie said.

And opened the trunk.

Despite running, the trunk of model S was opened.

The model S, which is always connected to the Internet even while driving, makes me realize that there is a danger that if it is hacked it will lead to accidents.

The last experiment is to make a sudden braking on the model S running. Moreover, it is the staff who is in the laboratory located 12 miles away (about 14 kilometers) from the parking lot where we are experimenting.

Mr. Lv who was told "give me a little more speed" is just a little speed up.

And when Mr. Nie told the smartphone "Now is the brake", suddenly the model S suddenly braked.

Mr. Lv who seems to be happy for some reason, "I did it".

Keen Security Lab, which released an experiment hacking model S, warns that "As long as model S is a terminal connected to the Internet, there is a possibility of hacking." We also recommend that you always apply the latest software update from Tesla to the model S owner.
