7 On Your Side examines weaknesses in home security systems vulnerable to hacking
Home ray ban wayfarer offerte security systems are supposed to make people safer. But as 7 On Your Side found out, it doesn't take much to hack in and foil a system.
7 On Your Side spoke with a hacker who tested 16 smart security systems, connected smoke alarms and thermostats and he found moncler outlet italia weaknesses in every single one.
This is how an alarm system is supposed to work. Someone breaks into your home and sets off the alarm. The crook is caught on video. But Colby spaccio woolrich milano Moore is a professional hacker and his job is to expose vulnerabilities.
"We could intercept the video stream to your cameras," Moore said. "We could watch what you were doing at all times. We could even coach factory outlet online shut off your video camera. ray ban sunglasses outlet We could sometimes turn off your home alarm system."
He's part of the professional security team at Synack of Redwood City. It bought cameras, home automation controllers, thermostats and even smoke detectors.
"So on all 16 devices, it took about 20 minutes to do what we call rooting the giubbotti moncler outlet device, and that means we can run our own code on it, and manipulate the device any way we want," Moore said.
Moore can hack into a moncler outlet italia thermostat and smoke detector then use them as an entry into other devices in your home.
"They can then kind woolrich outlet online italia of pivot from that fire giubbotti moncler outlet alarm to compromise other cameras, other computer systems," he said.
Through a Nest thermostat, another hacker took control of the lights and electronically imprinted his logo on the device. A third hacker cracked a password by running a program with every imaginable password combination until it spit out the network key.
"Once chaussure nike tn pas cher you can get the network key, it's michael kors uk stores as if you were in the person's house, because you're on their network," said tiffany italia Jeremy Hajek, a professor of the Illinois Institute of Technology.
Weak passwords are one of scarpe nike air max the main reasons why ray ban wayfarer hackers have it so easy. Another is lack of encryption which requires a secret key or password to read it.
"One of the reasons security is so bad is that a lot of these people that are designing these products aren't security people," Moore said. "They don't have the security background to efficiently design a louboutin chaussures secure product."
7 On Your Side went scarpe hogan with Moore while he hacked into a home in Menlo Park.
He did it all from his golden goose 2016 car outside the home, but he could be anywhere, hacking into a home in the Bay Area and then sending someone else to carry out the burglary.
"We do what we call reverse engineering," Moore said. "We reverse engineer the device and just michael kors outlet determined how it worked. Once you figure out how it works, you can figure out how you can scarpe hogan outlet milano compromise it."
Reverse engineering can take weeks, but once that happens the rest can be done in seconds. It took him less than 30 seconds to gain access to the camera inside the home. Then he disables the alarm in 12 seconds.
To protect yourself, hardwire as many devices as possible. Set up push alerts to notify you when any wireless device is offline ralph lauren uk outlet and any data sent to cloud should use a secure connection.
