"Driver privacy can be compromised in usage-based insurance systems"

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev have discovered the possibility of an attacker compromising private information about a driver including their location, home address, work address, and more via Usage-Based Insurance program’s cloud storage. Researchers were able to demonstrate this finding by applying an algorithm to the system. This article discusses the purpose of UBI programs, how vehicle networks as expected to invite more attacks, as well as the support for this research.
