Abstract

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have experienced a considerable evolution in the last decade, expanding from clinical scenarios to sectors such as entertainment or video games. Nevertheless, this popularization makes them a target for cyberattacks like malware. Current literature lacks comprehensive works focusing on cybersecurity applied to BCIs and, mainly, publications performing a rigorous analysis of the risks and weaknesses that these interfaces present. If not studied properly, these potential vulnerabilities could dramatically impact users' data, service availability, and, most importantly, users' safety. Because of that, this work introduces an evaluation of the risk that each BCI classification already defined in the literature presents to raise awareness between the readers of this chapter about the potential threat that BCIs can generate in the next years if comprehensive measures, based on standard mechanisms, are not adopted. Moreover, it seeks to alert academic and industrial stakeholders about the impact these risks could have on future BCI hardware and software.
