(Encore presentation) The threats facing modern vehicle security systems are real and evolving. This month, Indie Garage reported on the response from National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) in the wake of a major vehicle theft ring that had used a diagnostic tool to steal dozens of vehicles in Washington, D.C. This crime highlighted the continued threats to modern vehicle security systems worldwide - and NASTF issued a resulting statement that it continues to serve as the industry’s established secure access authority, and their framework to combat vehicle security crime.

We're revisiting this extended episode, originally aired October 2024, with Donny Seyfer, Executive Officer, NASTF, discussing the truth on cybersecurity, and what's being done to mitigate the real threats.
