The computer-control system can then apply the brake on the wheel concerned, and even adjust the amount of engine torque sent to that wheel, so that skidding is prevented.
Hacking back across third party systems is more self help than self defense (rarely is the command and control computer linked directly to the system being attacked).
FORBES: Caution: Active Response to Cyber Attacks Has High Risk
More important is the computer system the company has designed to control the line.
The independent inquiry board set up to investigate the first explosive failure said the flight control system failed because of errors in computer software design.
By registering the amount of friction between the tyre and the road, the system warns the car's computer-control equipment if the car is in danger of aquaplaning on a large puddle or skidding on ice.
Both models will also apparently come packed with features, include driver and passenger side airbags, interior and exterior LED lighting, a "solar assisted" climate control system, and an "advanced drive computer" that includes GPS, a rear-view camera, and a complete vehicle diagnostic system.
Alongside the HTC-made handset are an altitude and orbit control system, two propulsion setups and a Linux-based computer with a "high-speed" processor.
Unlike other aircraft where the pilot's controls are manually attached to the flaps and rudders, Airbus 330 airliners are equipped with a "fly by wire" system that sends electronic signals from an onboard computer to move key control surfaces.
The cars have no human driver and no remote control system - everything from sensors to navigation is handled by an onboard computer.
Unlike other botnets, Storm has no single command-and-control point--it functions as a peer-to-peer system where any hijacked computer can give and receive commands.
