Government regulations are being urged to address security flaws in electronic lockers, found in gyms and offices, which can be hacked using low-cost digital tools. Researchers demonstrated that attackers could extract administrator keys from digital locks, allowing unauthorized access to multiple lockers. The digital aspect of these lockers is under scrutiny as the vulnerabilities pose significant security risks.
To combat such risks, governments are expected to enforce stricter digital encryption standards and cybersecurity measures for digital locker systems. Companies are now incorporating additional protections, but the issue calls for stronger regulatory oversight and digital safeguards.
