就在尼桑聆风（Nissan Leaf）的NissanConnect应用程序可能被黑客入侵以控制风扇设置（可能耗尽电池）和下载过去硬盘的日志的消息传出后一天，尼桑已经取消了该功能，并表示“期待着很快推出（其）应用程序的更新版本”

信息安全在汽车行业一直是一个特别紧迫的问题，互联汽车的概念有时比行业抵御黑客的能力发展得更快。NissanConnect黑客，允许个人下载和操作设置，如果他们有一个叶子的VIN号码，并不是最严重的黑客-似乎没有任何情况下，它会把一个移动的车辆在危险的方式-但它可以有效地通过耗尽电池禁用汽车。在最坏的情况下，黑客还可以使用驾驶日志来了解车主何时在家、工作或其他地方。

在尼桑修补之前，这款应用程序的运行是很好的——尽管发现黑客行为的研究人员特洛伊·亨特（Troy Hunt）说，他是在1月23日第一次就此事与尼桑通信的。这让尼桑有整整一个月的时间没有公开披露行动，但直到亨特公开黑客攻击后，系统才被下线。

以下是日产的完整声明：

The NissanConnect EV app (formerly called CarWings and is used for the Nissan LEAF) is currently unavailable.

This follows information from an independent IT c***ultant and subsequent internal Nissan investigation that found the dedicated server for the app had an issue that enabled the temperature control and other telematics functi*** to be accessible via a non-secure route.

No other critical driving elements of the Nissan LEAF are affected, and our 200,000-plus LEAF drivers across the world can continue to use their cars safely and with total confidence. The only functi*** that are affected are those controlled via the mobile phone - all of which are still available to be used manually, as with any standard vehicle. We apologize for the disappointment caused to our Nissan LEAF customers who have enjoyed the benefits of our mobile apps. However, the quality and seamless operation of our products is paramount.

We're looking forward to launching updated versi*** of our apps very soon.
