Brain implants used to treat Parkinson's can be hacked and used to control people, scientists warn
Brain implants used to treat Parkinson's disease could be hacked by cyber attackers and used to control people, scientists have claimed.
A report by the Oxford Functional Neurosurgery Group and cyber security company Kaspersky claims that people's memories could be exploited by hackers and has called on cyber security companies, manufacturers and healthcare companies to develop new technology to stop them.
Academics have previously warned that brain implants could prevent patients from "speaking or moving, cause irreversible damage to their brain, or even worse, be life-threatening". They claimed that hackers could overload or disable the system, and could damage people's brains.
