In this episode of Cypher Tech Hacks, host Alex Cipher uncovers the real-life Tesla API hack that let attackers remotely access and control Teslas across 13 countries. It wasn’t a bug in Tesla’s system—it was a deadly combination of exposed tokens, careless third-party developers, and silent API abuse.
Learn how one security researcher responsibly revealed the flaw, what steps hackers would take to exploit it, and most importantly—how you can prevent similar breaches in your own apps, devices, or digital life.
