The main vulnerability of Kia, Hyundai and Genesis cars is a non -clock access system

This was reported in the commentary to the publication “Gazeta.ru” by the head of the “Laboratory of Copyright Protection from the Commerce” Andrei Kondrashov. According to the expert, the weak protection of the standard option allows attackers to hide almost any popular South Korean car in a matter of minutes using a special device.

Kondrashov explained that in most cars of South Korean brands, a non -clock access function is carried out by generating a key. The hijackers use a special device called grabber, which allows you to choose the working algorithmic key of most popular machines in just a few minutes.

A car rating has been compiled, which most often steal in Russia listed the most stolen cars in Russia in 2024 of car hijacked: “Chinese” at risk?

According to the expert, all Kia, Hyundai and Genesis cars with non -clock access use the same security system. Thus, attackers can open any model, starting from the top versions of Kia Rio, ending with the crossovers of Hyundai Palisade and Santa Fe.

South Korean cars are still one of the most popular in the secondary market. In addition, in conditions of a deficiency of spare parts, steamed machines are often disassembled to parts. At the same time, the Kia and Hyundai models are massively used in taxi and car sharing. The listed factors indicate that cars from South Korea will continue to lead the rating of the most stealing cars in Russia.

At the end of February, experts said that the hijackers switched to Lada cars. The domestic brand first headed the anti -rating, bypassing the South Korean and Chinese brands.
