Car hacking methods + prevention tips [INFOGRAPHIC]
Cars are becoming increasingly fueled by tech as the landscape transitions away from gasoline and towards electric vehicles. And just like other electronic devices like computers and phones, cars can be hacked if the proper cybersecurity measures aren’t taken.
