GoKawiilSecurity researchers extract encryption key and footage after removing physical Flock ALPR camera
A hacker group calling itself stegan0gram physically removed a Flock license-plate-reading camera from a roadway pole, reverse-engineered its solar-powered hardware, and copied its storage. Inside, they found unencrypted partitions containing an encryption key that unlocked a trove of 27,321 short video clips and roughly 1.6 million images capturing over 50,200 vehicles across a 21-day logging period. The findings, examined jointly by 404 Media and Wired, showed the device also occasionally detected people on motorcycles, though no active facial recognition was found.
