When I grow up, I want to be a scooter

Presented at Kawaiicon (2019), Oct. 18, 2019, 2:30 p.m. (15 minutes).

Last year we figured out how to perform mad hacks on a scooter. This year we’re going to go one better - what if we /are/ the scooter? Let’s spend some time exploring the other side of the API surface, and how we can get there in the first place. Will you be amazed at the level of sophistication in their authentication mechanisms? Will you be blown away by the techniques used to uniquely generate a scooter’s identity? Will it all just be terrible? Let’s find out how it’s done, and then let’s talk about how it should be done.

    Matthew Garrett does some sort of security stuff, but also takes apart things that aren’t meant to be taken apart and finds software in places that shouldn’t contain software and then takes that apart as well.
