Tencent Keen Security Lab employees have put Tesla cars under a series of tests to, well, test their defenses against hacking attempts. Those defenses have been found lacking to say the least: as it turned out, a really Keen hacker (see what I did there?) could gain access to the autonomous vehicle with just a gaming pad, whether or not the car is currently working on an autopilot. This as well as other ways to hack Tesla have been presented on this video.
