> I believe what I just wrote applies similarly for security too.

Automotive security is nearly an oxymoron. The reasons for that are simple: the difficulty and expense of attacking a vehicle exceeds the bored grad student/curious tinkerer threshold, and the automotive industry has collectively the worst attitude towards security I've ever encountered.

The depressingly predictable result is that third party automotive security testing is a sport reserved for people who are extremely disinterested in disclosing their methods to you, aka the actual attackers.
