Drone hacking is becoming Child’s Play


You know what really strikes me about a lot of the drone hacks we’ve seen lately? It just get too easy. I mean we’re seeing a huge number of new attacks published at every security conference. Last RSA Conference a security researcher reported finding a way to hijack a high-end drone, using parts costing as little as $40. The expert says it is possible to start the octocopter’s engines, engage auto-takeoff, control its camera and, potentially, crash the machine. The high end drone manufacturer or model was not disclosed, but it cost about $18000 and is in use by police departments all around the world.
