Automotive Networks

Presented at DEF CON 12 (2004), July 30, 2004, 9 p.m. (50 minutes).

This presentation provides an introduction to the electronic networks present on late model automobiles. These networks will be described loosely following the OSI model of networking. Common uses of these networks will be presented, and the privacy implications of some uses will be questioned. The presentation will conclude with an introduction to OpenOtto, a free software and hardware project implementing the network protocols previously described.
