Solve : What is Juice Jacking?? |
|
Answer» I didn't know until today. Juice jacking is a type of cyber attack involving a charging port that DOUBLES as a data connection, typically over USB. This often involves either installing malware or SURREPTITIOUSLY copying sensitive data from a smart phone, TABLET, or other computer device. There are videos on You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0W8U_E8dho Question. Has this ever got to you? Quote They can put malware into you laptop if you use a public charging station, like in an airport. Don't do it.I'm not aware of any Laptops that use USB to charge. The threat of "juice-jacking" is mitigated by smartphone OS's requiring the user to specifically indicate to allow data transfer. |
