#FTC Alleges #Tapplock does Not Secure Personal Data -- #Xanjero

The Federal Trade Commission is asserting that smart lock manufacturer Tapp, the company behind Tapplock, mislead the public about its product…

The one simple premise behind any lock is that it secures a space from intrusion. Regardless if it’s a key, combination, or smart lock, its lone function is to keep things safe. Turns out, one smart lock on the market does not live up to its maker’s…

Tapplock security update 2018 NEW firmware

Available from: Amazon UK:    https://amzn.to/2GChlgF Amazon US:    https://amzn.to/2GGbEKq Amazon CA:    https://amzn.to/2Jql9iH

Tapplock Security Update 2018 NEW Firmware https://tapplock.com/ Around this time last year I made a video about this great like gadget, not knowing the bad publicity it would get later on down the road! The Lock has been working great for me and has not given up over the harsh winter or tarnished in the summer sun.

So what could possibly happen to cast a doubt over this cool gadget? Well two things actually! Firstly a fellow YouTuber called jerryrigeverything bought one and tried to see if he could bust it. Now the saving grace for this bust was that his lock along with possibly a few more had a manufacturing defect that allowed the rear protective cover to be removed using a gopro sticky mount. There was supposed to be a security pin to stop the disc rotating, but it seems that the pin of this device was not functioning and allowed the cover to be removed. This allowed access to the internal workings and made breaking the lock quite easy to do. Although he could of just got a large set of bolt cutters and saved us all from his dramatics!

Anyway the second attack or flaw is more serious in my opinion. The people at pentest partners (security specialists) wanted to take a closer look at this lock and see what the deal was. They found that the locks AES 128bit security was poorly configured and that the data exchange (Bluetooth) gave away most of the locks data and therefore made it relatively easy to hack with a knowledge of Bluetooth protocols and some programming skills.   After this they approached TAPPLOCK to make them aware of the risks, and they acknowledged the issue and informed them that they were working on the issue. Fast forward to mid June 2018 and Tapplock have annouced (albeit quietly) that there is a new app and new firmware available for Tapplock users.

So in the video i will be showing you how to install the new firmware. Hopefully this will be the last time that Tapplock are in the press for the wrong reasons!

Imagine if you could walk up to your bicycle, unlock it within two seconds, and ride off without grubbing in your pocket for keys, without spinning a combination dial with cold, wet hands, and without fiddling around with a mobile phone app to tell the lock to open.

What if you could just swipe your finger over the lock and open it as easily as you unlock your mobile phone with its fingerprint scanner?

Well, Canadian company Tapplock sells a product that not only works that way, but also boasts “unbreakable design”.
