Vulnerabilities In The Abus Secvest Wireless Alarm

Once again, not my work, but a look at the Abus Secvest alarm system, which is at least partially made by Cooper.

 

The wireless protocol isn't significantly different to a Yale or Friedland DIY alarm - no rolling code, no encryption, no authentication. Vulnerable to replay attacks.

This is a grade 2 alarm, but is a million miles behind something like a Pyronix Enforcer or Texecom Ricochet in terms of security.

I have a blog, some of which is about alarm security and reverse engineering:

Yeah, the Abus kit is stupidly expensive - but I think if you are trade in the right country, it is probably a lot less? I know what I pay for alarms is a lot more than trade here.

 

What I found particularly interesting about this alarm is that it is very modern and forward thinking on the IP front, but it's like a system from 20 years ago on the RF front. It must be what the consumers want.

That is expensive, could fit a galaxy's hybrid wireless for less that that.

Expensive and insecure. I know they aren't used here, but I hope it means people will vote with their cash.

Rejigged Homelink 75? How similar are the devices to current cooper kit?

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
