"I am surprised there are very little security concerns in Formula One, so somehow I guess Formula One is not a big target, for now," he said. "It is surprising for me because I am very familiar with the underworld of computer security and everybody is a target. For example, us, we get security attacks every day [as do] Microsoft, Google, anybody."
"It is relatively easy to attack sensors (on cars)," he revealed. "I technically and mechanically understand how to do it and I’m surprised that nobody hacks in. I’m on the white side of this, but I think it will be a concern and there are definitely [needs for] encryption and protection of data to make it better for Toro Rosso and hopefully for other teams."
But protecting their networks and protecting their systems, I think that should also be a concern [for the teams] and it is not right now," Beloussov added.
