. this is the "cbs overnight news." >> if you or someone you love has an insulin pump or pacemaker, this next story is just for you. it turns out those devices can be hacked, and it doesn't take a genius to do it. the fda is coming under fire from other government agencies for not tackling the problem. anna werder has details. >> medical device, some of them run on computers, and like computers can be hacked. so far neither government officials nor security experts have found any incidents where a hacker has harmed a patient through a device. but researcher says those devices have massive vulnerabilities that make it easy for hackers to break. in.
3:41 am
>> there is nothing from stopping us in a garage from taking them apart and hacking them. >> reporter: talk to billy rio and jonathan hut s. >> we have yet to find a device we haven't been able to hack. >> reporter: wait. you're yet to find a device you cannot hack? >> that is correct. >> reporter: the troh two security researchers have examined pacemakers, drug infusion pumps and insulin pump, devices that help keep people alive, and found all have vulnerabilities that would allow someone else to take control of the machines. the reason? all of those devices are run by computers, and computers can be hacked. this is all kind of chilling. >> that's why's we do this. >> reporter: for instance, take this insulin pump made by device manufacturer medtronic. >> anyone that has this device that has one of these controllers, we can take it over. >> reporter: they showed us how they can send a wireless signal telling the pump to deliver the wrong amount of insulin to a patient nearby who might be
3:42 am
wearing it. so you're in control of this now? >> you're not pushing the buttons on that obviously. >> i'm not pushing a button. >> even if you were, it wouldn't do anything. >> reporter: they also fou vulnerabilities in a medtronic pacemaker that would allow a hacker to disrest program it from anywhere, disrupting a patient's heart rhythms in a way that could hurt or kill them. they're scenarios that until now have been the stuff of tv shows. it sounds like a method for murder, am i right? >> there is no coming back from some of these exploits, right? if a pacemaker or patient gets hacked, you can't take that back. you can't issue them a new credit card. you can't tell them to change their pass ward. you can't issue them credit monitoring. they're hurt. they're killed. >> reporter: the pacemaker vulnerability was serious enough, they thought medtronic would want to address it immediately. so in january of 2017, they sent the company a report detailing what they'd found. >> it seemed to us that a lot of it was being downplayed by the
3:43 am
manufacturer. >> reporter: when you say downplay, what do you mean? >> saying hey, this isn't possible, it's not feasible, the way they characterize it is wrong. >> they were completely disagreeing with everything. >> reporter: so the two researchers decided they had to prove it by writing the code -- >> thank you. >> then demonstrating the potential dangers of both the pacemaker and the insulin pump at a prestigious information security conference. >> after the two live demonstrations, people actually stood up and clapped, which kind of took us by surprise. >> reporter: medtronic's response? the company issued a statement saying it had addressed the problem, and that existing security controls mitigate the issue. but the vulnerability caught the attention of the food and drug administration. >> any device can be hacked, and that's often not understood. >> reporter: the fda's dr. suzanne schwartz oversees medical device cyber security. she says manufacturers have been playing catch-up. >> it's a culture shift. so the actions and the
3:44 am
activities that we're seeing manufacturers take are very encouraging. they're very promising, but we still have a ways to go. >> reporter: in the case of the medtronic pacemaker, the researchers' work prompted the fda to start asking questions of its own. >> that was when medtronic finally came out and said what we'd been saying all along was indeed correct, that there is remote concern and there is potential to cause patient harm. >> reporter: last month, the fda took action, sending out a warning about certain medtronic pacemakers, and the company issued a software fix. medtronic has also instructed users of its insulin pumps to disable certain features to minimize risks. the company declined an on-camera interview, but in a statement to cbs news, medtronic admitted it took entirely too long to process, validate and mitigate the vulnerabilities discovered by the two researchers. so do you femael vindicated? >> not really looking for
3:45 am
vindication. >> at toned telephone day for the manufacturers who don't want to move and don't want to fix their device, i hope they realize that the repercussions are really serious and we can't wait for something to happen before they decide to fix them. the taxi of the future is getting a road test in chandler, arizona. that's where wemo, a sister of google is kicking the tires. >> reporter: we're in the back of wemo, that's google's self-driving car company. this is something you've never seen before. they've never let cameras back here. but very soon they're going to let the general public use these, hail them like an uber, except for one difference, the car will be doing the driving. >> all right. i've requested the ride. >> reporter: barbara adams used her phone to summon the self-driving future. we're riding with her to the drug store in what will soon be the nation's autonomous ride sharing taxi service. she has been part of the program
3:46 am
made up of more than 400 households. >> i usually use it for date night on saturday night. and my favorite thing is going to the mall. >> reporter: hundreds of autonomous driving wemo vans operate daily within a 100-square mile area. for now they have driver who can take control. screens inside show what the wemo cease around it. cameras, sensors and lidar allows the onboard computers to see up to three football fields in every direction, all technology google developed itself and closely guards. >> we want to build the most experienced driver. >> reporter: this is wemo's chief external officer. >> it's actually texaken this or thousands and hundreds of thousands of tests to get to the answer. yes, we firmly believe that self-driving technology could help make the roads safer. >> reporter: wemo is also testing self-driving semis, working on public driving solutions and a way to
3:47 am
self-license to big automakers. but it all starts with the ride hailing app. it will soon launch in arizona. is wemo ready for the general public? >> wemo is ready to give more people the opportunity to ride in our cars. >> reporter: how has it gone so far? >> it's been fantastic. >> reporter: samantha jackson and her 17-year-old daughter are wemo early riders. kyla uses the service almost daily to get to school and work. >> i get in. air conditioning is on. so it's nice and cool, and i'm just doing my homework all the way to work. >> reporter: the promise of self-driving cars is to free up commuters while reducing the 94% of crashes caused by human error. but after last march's deadly collision between a self-driving uber and a dead pedro strand, only 21% of people say they're willing to drive in a driverless car. how do you combat the concern that's out there about whether or not autonomous vehicles are safe enough to be on the roads? >> we found again and again and again, when people come and they experience the technology
3:48 am
firsthand, they have their own personal transformation. they say oh, i get it. >> reporter: while wemo autonomous vehicles have been involved in crash, usually minor, they've been the fault of people, not the machine. phow confident are you that thoe cars aren't going to make a mistake? >> safety is our focus every day at wemo. there is the possibility that there will be a mistake like there has been in this self-driving technology space. so we don't walk around laboring under the delusion that mistakes won't happen. >> reporter: did you ever worry about the safety of being in a car that's not driven by a person? >> so i never really worried about what it was going to be like to have an autonomous vehicle handling things. and when we were early drivers, it would stop for, you know, if it didn't recognize something, it would always stop. >> reporter: wemo does intend to eventually remove the safety driver so there will be no one
