Is the CAN bus encrypted in 2024 ITS?

[FW14B]

Car theft by CAN invader attarck or CAN bus hacking is getting more popular because it can be done within a few minutes with tools needed. It had been a big issue for Lexus in Japan and UK but Acura and Honda have the same security holes. Lexus put encryption in the past couple of years to prevent this and at this point the risk is reduced. Does anyone know if Acura and Honda have added similar security measure to protect against thefts?

i think they would be vulnerable in CAN bus attacks.

there's always going to be a way to steal cars. best bet is to have as many deterrents as possible such as steering wheel locks, kill switches, and pulling fuses. none of this prevents them from just towing your car though...lol

Bike chain the tire to a pole for good measures

Thanks for replies. It sounds like Honda and Acura are a few step behind. I know that this is eventually a chicken race, but it is ridiculous to get a car stolen by getting a corner of the bumper ripped off within a few minutes.

I mean a Flipper Zero can be used to scan and copy your keyfob signal while it's in your house. If someone's determined they will find a way. Now with KIAs being super easy to take thats the current focus. You're more likely to get your wheels stolen.
