Abstract:
In recent years, cars have become more computerized, connected, and more
vulnerable to attack. We have began to see a range of attacks on
automotive systems presented by researchers.

In this seminar, we will provide an introduction to automotive control
systems and vehicle networks. Using this knowledge, we'll take a look
into the history of automotive security, and some notable attacks that
have been demonstrated. After looking at the past, we'll cover the
challenges of the industry today and looking into the future.

Attendees can expect to receive a crash course in automotive systems,
which will help their understanding of automotive security topics. The
attack examples serve as case studies, which detail the mistakes made
and how they can be prevented.

Bio:
Eric Evenchick is the founder of Linklayer Labs, a company focused on
embedded systems and automotive security. Linklayer aims to help
companies understand the risks present in embedded devices, identify
countermeasures, and implement security functionality.
Eric has worked on automotive firmware at Tesla Motors and Faraday
Future, where he was primarily responsible for over-the-air firmware
update capabilities and security design. His experience in automotive
began with research in alternative fuel vehicles at the University of
Waterloo, in conjunction with the US Environmental Protection Agency and
General Motors. Here, Eric led the team performing electrical and
control systems integration of fuel cell and hybrid vehicle prototypes.
The CANtact device, an open-source hardware tool for CAN networks, was
released by Eric at Blackhat Asia 2015. In 2015, Eric also developed
BLEKey, a hardware tool for bypassing the most popular electronic access
control systems. BLEKey was presented at Blackhat USA and Europe.
