3D打印黑客破裂了“安全”键
In an exciting development in Australia – or worrying, depending on which side of the lock you’re on – a group of hackers in Melbourne has demonstrated their ability to use 3D printed keys to open security locks with highly restricted keyways. And how did they do it? By accessing the designs of the locks on publicly available patent sites.
根据我们的研究，“限制密钥是通过将制造限制在需要许可证和特定机械来生产钥匙的昂贵专家锁匠的控制中。”黑客从数据纯粹的数字中受益。我认为，随着物体既有物理和数字化，我都喜欢说“挖掘”，黑客将进入前门的生活，到达我们的汽车，冰箱，沙发，房屋，我们的房屋，卧室。随着3D打印进入身体部位的创造，我相信我们可能会听到未来的故事，其中有些人会将“生活黑客入侵”提升到一个新的水平。
The hacker, known as “Topy,” has by-passed the use of metal keys for restricted keyways, which are patented and not available to the general user, by using a 3D printer to create a high-strength plastic key which can be used numerous times.
Darren Pauli, in an article for The Register, points out “The key blanks are often scalable vector images with precise measurements…” which calls into question how these XLM-based vector image formats can be protected.
The security industry was made aware of the possibility of hackers producing 3D printed keys as recently as December, 2015, in a presentation by Eric Wustrow titled “Replication Prohibited: 3D Printed Key Attacks,” Wustrow is a computer science engineering student at the University of Michigan.
在2016年澳大利亚网络安全中心会议之后，“ Topy”在4月15日至16日在Bsides Canberra展示了他的发现。随后，参与者加入了他的黑客锁和建造挑战锁。
