Car Hacking 101: From Key Fob Cracking to Full System Exploitation is a comprehensive course designed for anyone looking to dive deep into the world of automotive cybersecurity. Taught by cybersecurity expert Luciano Ferrari, this course equips you with the skills and knowledge needed to understand, assess, and exploit the security systems of modern vehicles.
Course Overview:
With the rapid advancement of automotive technology, vehicles are no longer just mechanical machines; they are now sophisticated networks of interconnected electronic systems. Modern cars are packed with Electronic Control Units (ECUs), CAN bus networks, and various sensors and interfaces that make them highly functional but also vulnerable to cyber threats. This course is meticulously crafted to help you navigate these complexities and become proficient in car hacking.
What You Will Learn:
1. Foundations of Automotive Cybersecurity:
•Begin your journey by understanding the basics of automotive cybersecurity. Learn about the role of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) and how they function as the brains of modern vehicles. This section covers different types of ECUs, their software layers, and how they communicate through automotive networks like the CAN bus (Controller Area Network) and automotive Ethernet. You’ll set up your own virtual machines and hardware to create a realistic lab environment for practicing these skills.
2. Advanced Analysis and Attacks on Automotive Networks:
•As you progress, the course delves deeper into the vulnerabilities within automotive networks. You’ll learn advanced techniques for attacking the CAN bus, exploring its seven attack vectors, and implementing basic Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to detect these threats. We’ll explore LIN (Local Interconnect Network) vulnerabilities and attack methods, dive into Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS), and discuss Radio Frequency (RF) attacks, including RF reversing and replay techniques.
3. Key Hacking Techniques:
•Master the art of key hacking by exploring different methods of key fob attacks, GPS spoofing techniques, and RFID cloning and emulation. You’ll learn how to break into vehicle systems by cracking WiFi Access Points, analyzing telecom security for telematics systems, and performing Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment (TARA) to identify and mitigate risks in vehicle networks.
4. Mobile and Firmware Exploitation:
•With the increasing use of mobile applications to control and interact with vehicle systems, understanding mobile exploitation becomes crucial. In this module, you’ll get introduced to Android basics for car hacking, learn dynamic instrumentation with Frida and RMS, and use Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) for analyzing automotive apps. You’ll also learn the essentials of firmware reverse engineering and browser fuzzing techniques, crucial for identifying vulnerabilities in in-car systems.
5. Real-World Applications and Case Studies:
•The course goes beyond theory, providing hands-on labs, real-world scenarios, and case studies that give you practical experience in car hacking. You will explore examples of vulnerabilities exploited in real cars and learn the tools and techniques used by professionals to perform these hacks safely and effectively.
