‘Gross insecurity’ of high-tech locks exposed _ WIRED
Marc Tobias and Tobias Bluzmanis demonstrated how to attack different locks at DefCon in 2010, including the BioLock 333 fingerprint lock and the Kwikset SmartKey. They also showed how to open an AMSEC DIGITAL SAFE in seconds.
Perhaps most significant was their presentation of how to compromise the iLOQ C10S electronic cylinder. There was a design issue with this series of locks that as a result of our presentation has been remedied. We demonstrated the issue with iLOQ in a separate video. These attacks were also documented in the 2024 book by Marc Tobias entitled “Tobias on Locks and Insecurity Engineering.”
