SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AUTOCRYPT, a leading Physical AI security solutions provider, announced that its Red Team won first place at the Car Hacking Village CTF, held from August 7 to 9 at DEF CON 34 in Las Vegas, one of the world’s leading cybersecurity and hacking conferences. The victory marks AUTOCRYPT’s first championship since first participating in the competition in 2022, following its third-place finish last year.

Competing against 83 teams, AUTOCRYPT became the first team to complete all challenges, securing first place within 25 hours of the 50-hour competition. The championship further demonstrates AUTOCRYPT’s automotive cybersecurity expertise and technical capabilities on the global stage.

Held at DEF CON since 2015, the Car Hacking Village CTF is an international hacking competition focused on automotive cybersecurity. The competition tests practical automotive hacking and cybersecurity capabilities through security challenges involving real-world automotive environments, ranging from electronic control units (ECUs) and embedded boards to actual vehicles.

Leveraging its proprietary AI-powered security analysis platform, AUTOCRYPT’s security researchers utilized multiple AI agents to simultaneously identify vulnerabilities and analyze potential attack vectors, while reviewing the findings and determining the next course of action. This human-AI collaboration combines AI’s ability to rapidly process large volumes of information with the experience and judgment of security researchers.

"Winning the Car Hacking Village CTF reflects our cybersecurity expertise and hands-on experience across cryptography and vehicle environments," said Duksoo Kim, Cofounder and CEO of AUTOCRYPT. "As the cybersecurity landscape increasingly incorporates autonomous AI agents, this achievement demonstrates how we can effectively combine AI-driven analysis with expert judgement, a pivotal approach in today’s evolving threat landscape."

Moving forward, AUTOCRYPT plans to further advance its human-AI collaborative capabilities for application across customer-facing security services, including vehicle vulnerability assessment and penetration testing, helping customers identify and respond to emerging threats faster.
