Disturbing story.

He pretty much convicted himself in statements to the FBI. Since he's a 'security consultant' I wonder if his motive is to ingratiate himself to the airlines or FAA as the top guru of computer security.

Some how I knew this could happen. Computers are great, but fuckable.

[link to www.wired.com]
 Quoting: Desert Fox


I call bull shiot on this....The IFE and the flight thrust computers are not connected. There is no way to hack into the trust management computers let alone fly and airplane sideways. Not without a very stiff cross wind anyway.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59140020


Sorry I didn't type this right....What I meant to say is the data cables from the aircraft flight side to the IFE are only one way data cables and lack the ability to carry instructions back to the flight side. Just like there are two different types of data cables you can hook up to your computer, one which can carry data both ways and one that can only carry data one way.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59140020


I think what he is saying is he increased the power to an engine on one side only and this caused the plane to yaw and continue at the same altitude and pitch, but with the nose yawed to the side, with the autopilot keeping the pitch level and altitude maintained.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69248785


And doing that is not possible. The autothrottle system has a comparator between the two throttles. If they don't advance evenly, the comparator shuts the autothrottle system down completely - in case there is an error in its own system. It is not possible for the guy to have done this. He's full of shit - looking for fame in the hacker community.

From Wired article:

He obtained physical access to the networks through the Seat Electronic Box, or SEB. These are installed two to a row, on each side of the aisle under passenger seats, on certain planes. After removing the cover to the SEB by “wiggling and Squeezing the box,” Roberts told agents he attached a Cat6 ethernet cable, with a modified connector, to the box and to his laptop and then used default IDs and passwords to gain access to the inflight entertainment system. Once on that network, he was able to gain access to other systems on the planes.

Just don't let people next to you uncover the SEB and plug an ethernet cable into it.

Re: HACKER MADE UNITED FLIGHT FLY SIDEWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...


Yanno I have a anti-hacker tech I want to develop so these sorts of events are history not daily events. So I looked around for investors. Mind you I do not have a prototype built as that costs way too much for average people these days.

Everything was going ok until the one question was asked "Why has nobody else done this yet?"

My answer was simple but investors can be so skeptical and so no funding.

Until someone gets a grip and realizes the solution to this is not going to come from Intel, Microsoft, Apple or Google - this sort of thing will keep happening.

Sad.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44860960


Don't give up.
 Quoting: Desert Fox


Well I have tried reaching out since 2012... all want a prototype built at my expense before even considering it.

There are two primary areas - the hardware side involves low-level modifications to the BIOS code, and the software side is easy with a few good programmers.

The problem is it costs a minimum of 100k for the BIOS company to do the mods needed. During our discovery phase I had a conference call with a BIOS company and the engineer was ecstatic at what I wanted to do. Just wish it wasn't so hard to find the needle in the haystack to get this funded.

Speaking of funding - forget the crowdfunding sites - they steal intellectual property right and left.

And so it goes. I roll my eyes every time I see anything relating to hacking these days.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44860960


See: Angel Investors
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69246900


Same thing: Want a prototype built first. Seed investors just don't cut it.

Overall, to get to a working Beta version will take two phases:

1st is getting the hardware (BIOS mods) done. Figuring from start to finish 330k total. Time to complete? 5 months.

Second phase requires several programmers and me striking a deal with an Anti-Virus company to show the Beta version works. Cost I estimate for second phase? Upwards of 3 million. Legal is not cheap nor are programmers who know their salt. Time to complete - six months.

So yeah Angel investors usually only go up to 1-2 million max and they want results - right now!

Uh-huh I believe you. You sound like someone that has trouble turning a PC on.

"Anti-Hacking Tech"...
epiclol
 Quoting: WatermelonFucker


Pardon my watered down description investors need to digest what it is I want to do.

Boneheads like need to insult anything to feel better about yourself.

Maybe I should have said something more along the lines of 'A modified BIOS which allows -3 level layer observation of data as it moves across data paths. Along with dedicated storage for downloadable Anti-Virus binaries and any other desired software, this allows any firmware injected with back-door accessibility to be detected and thwarted"

Investors are dumb when it comes to anything technical. If the investor I worked with stopped at 'Why has nobody done this before' then there is no hope. Only techs understand what I am saying - and I am not including a few tidbits here for obvious reason.

Besides - idiots like you wouldn't get it anyway. Oops - time to go learn how to wipe your ass mate!

Only a matter of time before someone hacks the nuclear weapons systems!

ahhh
 Quoting: NODOOM


Yeah, have you heard of Stuxnet. Problem with this advanced piece of malware is that it just so happened to get leaked on the Internet. Stuxnet is malware designed specifically to target Iran nuclear reactors and cause there fans to slow down or turn off while the GUI says they are going, so in effect to cause a meltdown.

Now that stuxnet has been released, all someone technically would have to do is modify the source code and than they could target nuke reactors, power grids, etc.

All this Patriot Act, and security up the butt since 9/11 and a hacker can alter a planes flight controls, really??

Yeah I agree. Sadly I don't have the resources to go pound on their doors to make a presentation.

Tried finding a decent 'tech' VC on and off since 2012.

Not making a 'Powerpoint presentation' or typing it all up with step-by-step instructions - duh!

And to think the VC I was talking with was a Seattle based Vietnam F4 pilot. Definitely want to keep this in with someone who has military background.

And hey - if the Govt wants to whisk me away then so be it. All this illegal accessing of anything computerized has got to stop somewhere.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28871451


No. It sounds like he's a retard that is so retarded he believes he's a genius. If he truly was some bad ass code writer and/or hardware designer they would jump on the "invention" the reason they reject it with an excuse like "why has no one done this before" is because they feel sorry for him and how retarded he is and they are letting him down gently without crushing his dellusional dreams.
 Quoting: WatermelonFucker


That is always a possibility - not delusional just real.

And if while working on the 5-year plan the BIOS engineer said the mods I want to do can be done, is that so delusional? Sure there other steps after that but like a puzzle each area is one piece at a time.

You sound like someone who never got approval for anything as a kid. Mommy issues? You lack vision Watermellon.

What people refuse to understand.. just because the two networks were separate does not mean one could not infiltrate the other.

It has been tested between two laptops that even audio undetectable to humans can transfer data. People have got to start thinking outside the box...

Besides - if this guy was that good with code who is to say he did not plug the cable in and configure what each wire did? To normal people who do not think outside the box like Watermellon - this is not possible.

Anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Must be a stupid 'fact-resistant' liberal that Watermellon. Always criticizing what he does not understand.
