Welcome to our very first Pwn2Own Automotive – coming to you live from Tokyo and the Automotive World conference. The number of entries has surpassed our expectations, so we expect to award more than $1,000,000 USD for the over 45 entries we have across all categories. As always, we began our contest with a random drawing to determine the order of attempts. If you missed it, you can watch the replay here.
