Car's weakest spot may be its cloud and gadget connections, not the car itself

A car is a computer on wheels that talks to the manufacturer's cloud, the driver's phone, charging stations and the internet when kids stream movies in the back seat. Each of these connections can become an entry point for hackers.

• Cars exchange data with the maker's cloud, the driver's phone and chargers
• In-car video streaming puts vehicle traffic on the open internet
• Every external connection is a potential entry point for attackers
