Vehicle data security: Services warn of surveillance risks

Security services have issued warnings regarding the data collection capabilities of modern vehicles, which increasingly function as mobile data centers. These vehicles gather extensive information on drivers, passengers, and locations through integrated cameras, GPS, and microphones.

Authorities, including Dutch services, have cautioned that this data may be accessible not only to cybercriminals but also to manufacturers and state entities. This raises concerns regarding the potential for surveillance and the privacy of users within these connected ecosystems.
