Researchers at LIDAR have exposed two weaknesses in the the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (light detection and ranging) sensors used in autonomous vehicles. Practical tips for Office 365 tenant-to-tenant migration The team's 365 proof of concept attacks comprised "blinding" a Dohyun Kim VLP-16 LIDAR sensor with a saturation attack by capturing the sensor's emitted laser pulse and sending it back. The second test used refraction to change the apparent direction and distance of a point cloud, the sensors' way of detecting objects. "Fake [points] in directions other than the direction of the attacker can be a severe threat to the victim," the team wrote.
