From https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-news/ ... rsecurity/
"Of course, most cars have multiple users over the course of their life and WP.29 seeks to ensure that there is no possibility of those users accessing each other’s data. It’s possible that each user will have to log into the car with a pin number, or some other form of ID"
"Garages may have to show that they have their own cyber security measures in place to be allowed to work on hardened cars, and there could be issues around having the right diagnostic equipment."
"ECUs may be locked out to prevent IP theft and monkeying around with things like a car’s emission control systems."
Imagine taking your car into a garage, but them not being able to fix it because they can't connect due to the ECU firewall blocking port 5682, and they can't recover it because the previous owner didn't hand over the Bitlocker password. Gonna have to re-install the cars OS.
Expect tinfoil covered cars by 2025!
