Ubisoft obviously cares that everything in Watch Dogs It looked reliable – and the metropolis in which events unfold; and the behavior of digital citizens inhabiting it; and transport system; And, of course, the hacker abilities of the protagonist. So that there are no problems with the latter, developers work closely with "Kaspersky Laboratory". On the degree of involvement of the antivirus company in the development Watch Dogs told the senior producer of the project Dominic Guay (Dominic Guay) in an interview with Joystiq.
“We cooperate with "Kaspersky Laboratory", a large company engaged in the development of information protecting information from Internet hairches. They have real hacking experts, ”he said. – We send them a description of our concepts and expect reviews from them. Sometimes they say: “Yes, this is possible, but here you should correct” or “no, it works in a completely different way” ”.
The plot is based Watch Dogs Lies the concept of information war. At some point, the protagonist Aiden Pierce gains access to the global city information system, and at the same time-control over almost all the city infrastructures. At the same time Guy explains that the process of hacking of observations, traffic lights, doors and other electronic devices is not just another mini-game, but part of the plan to achieve some specific goals.

I wonder how Kaspersky’s “Laboratory” responded to the phone, hacking everything when you press one button.
And this, by the way, is https://nonukcasinosites.co.uk/european-betting-sites/ not as pointless as it seems at first glance. For example: habrahabr.ru/post/178501/.
I am not strong in physics, but I know for sure that you can’t hack a transformer through a mobile phone, you need a larger machine here, and I think that it only sends a signal to a larger machine, which creates interference, hacks, etc.p. But this is only my opinion, I do not impose it on anyone ..
Oh you … even so … Do our domesticates also take part in help in creating a game. In general, as far as the same Anton Logvinov told, the hacking process in the game at first glance does not look particularly complicated and very far from reality. To be honest, I can’t understand how exactly the employees of the Kaspersky laboratory will help when creating a game, but it is still interesting to ultimately look at this process.
And for which he was healed? For Logvinov? But Logvinov is really right: the video camera crashes to a friend a video camera, and then the server. It’s strange all this or not? Another thing is that everything is done for the sake of the game concept and convenience to play. For if in the game I had to “write programs” or do something beyond smart, then … well, the game is unlikely to have a wide audience.
Although he can be the owner of a quantum phone, and such a device … Yes, figs know what it is capable of ..
This can be done. Moreover, for this (theoretically) it is not even needed by CTOS, so something similar with proper skill and perseverance can be done now. Cm. higher.
Countless traffic lights, security cameras, home automation systems, heating systems – all this is connected to the Internet and is easily detected.
SHODAN users found a water park control system, a gas station, a hotel wine cooler and a crematorium. Cybersecurity specialists using Shodan even found command and control systems of nuclear power plants and atomic particle accelerator.
An independent specialist in Dan Tentler’s systems last year at the DEFCON cybersecurity conference demonstrated how he found a control system for evaporative cooler control, water heaters and garage gates.
He found a car wash that can be turned on and off, and the ice arena in Denmark, which can be thawed with one click of the button. In one city, a whole control system was connected to the Internet, and only one command could be transferred to the “test mode”. And in France, he found a system of control of a hydroelectric power station with two turbines, each of which generates 3 megavatts.
Interesting is not a myth or even a forecast. It’s all here. It all works. Yes, right now. So with transformers – if it is not yet possible, then in the near future you can probably. And in alternative reality – this is already by itself.
On the transformer itself to directly influence the smartphone, of course, impossible. This contradicts all laws of physics and common sense. But here the mechanism is based on the fact that everything is connected to a certain global network. Which, in turn, can already be hacking. And these are not only legends from Watch Dogs, it is all in reality. Not to mention the fact that in separate developed megacities already there are such centralized control systems, you can’t even imagine how many all kinds of devices in one way or another have access to the Internet. Which, if desired, theoretically quite can be used.
We are waiting for DLC with clothes in the symbolism of the Kaspersky laboratory, the protagonist’s backpack with the Kaspersky logo and the KAV +40 skille to defense.
