zakharov posted:*extremely wanting to derail the thread voice* Olympic Mathlete posted:I've never seen one used in an emergency. Mitch Hedberg posted:I rent a lot of cars 'cos I go on the road. When I drive a rental car, I don't know what's going on with it. A lot of times I drive for ten miles with the emergency brake on. That doesn't say a lot for me, but it really doesn't say a lot for the "emergency brake". It's really not an emergency brake, it's an emergency "make the car smell funny lever".

Cars are designed to sort of ignore the hand brake when in motion, specifically so it doesn't destroy the car. Go ahead and pull it while going 70 mph down the highway and tell me it doesn't do anything though.

I guess it's a good thing that sort of nonsense gets some attention so hopefully more people become aware of it. But "provided the blueprint" my rear end. That poo poo has already been going on for years. I can't find any recent data about this, but I'm pretty sure the majority of security breaches can still be traced back to someone plugging in a malware infected device. Probably one they were giving as a free promotional thing at a trade show or convention. And delegates handing each other infected USB devices has practically become a tradition at G20 meetings.

People just scatter USB drives in the parking lot of secure facilities. I forget the study but an insanely high percentage of them are picked up and plugged in on-premises.

Oh, I had to go through training for internet security. I mean as a goon it was all old hat to me, watching the video all I could think of was "poor Maria, thought of the internet and died." Of course we have to have training like that because there are still people who don't have any concept of computer security, why else does Geek Squad exist?

Random USB drives that say PORN in sharpie or has a boss or coworker's name on it, left in the parking lot. 95% insertion rate But that is the first mass mailing I'm aware of.

How do the drives infect? Wouldn't you have to run a program or something or are computers insane and auto-run things off a usb?

I'm no expert but your computer is clearly running programs when you plug in a USB, otherwise it wouldn't display a new drive, with the correct stored name and storage information etc. I imagine it's trivially easy to code something that triggers off of that initial info request from the computer.

Reminder that people on the Internet poo poo all over her because she stood at attention instead of putting her hand over her heart or whatever during the US anthem. Even though she was raised in a military household and was taught to do that. She deserves every good thing she gets.

Manufacturers are leaning away from calling parking brakes emergency brakes, probably because of the schade of people thinking an emergency brake is for emergencies that occur while at speed

USB devices can impersonate keyboards and other devices, and spread that USB malware to other USB storage. The term to Google is "BadUSB".

On the USB sticks containing malware: While it takes an idiot to plug a USB stick they didn't source and format themselves into a work machine, there's a reason so many workplaces physically disable USB ports and use peripherals that either don't use USB or lock the peripherals into a USB slot.

I've heard on multiple occasions of hardware used in military-grade systems, for example, having the USB ports either physically removed or filled with epoxy or something similar.

One issue is that if you ever plug it into an untrusted computer, you have to throw it away because it could have been infected. Formatting doesn't help with the more advanced techniques, because the malware lives in the firmware and not the storage flash.

For 44.99 you can be a hacking genius: https://hakshop.com/products/usb-rubber-ducky-deluxe I got one of these and it's pretty neat, was able to grab a computers password and have it send a text file with the password to a remote server. Most new anti-viruses were able to block it, but on older machines it worked nearly every time

Actually if you plug it into a laptop that has a read only os like linux running from cds, it's quite safe. Of course, stay offline. Edit: oh, oh yeah your USB is hosed, not the laptop.
