Car company Tesla Motors recently attended the Def Con security conference in Las Vegas in order to hire hackers to develop security systems for its current and future vehicles.
According to Transport Evolved, Tesla sent its own security expert Kristin Paget along to try and recruit the best possible talent for Tesla. Paget herself is experienced in the field, having worked for Apple before her move to Tesla, and before that, Microsoft.
Paget told The Wall Street Journal that the electric car company intends to hire as many as 20 to 30 hackers from Def Con alone.
