Hackers copied the onboard storage from a Flock Safety roadside camera and released recovered files that show how its software detects and tracks cars and people. They recovered an encryption key stored on the device that unlocked videos covering thousands of vehicle detections. As a result, reporting and analysis using those files show the system produces over 1,000,000 images and can detect people, not just vehicles.
