How to steal a computer password with buns

Usually, pita bread is filled with various sandwich fillings. However this chock-full Packed with electronics and designed to steal passwords from unsuspecting users. Enough to put a bun (which was dubbed PITA) near the laptop and it will take the interception out electromagnetic pulses.



This project was developed in tel Aviv University and the researchers have concentrated their efforts on GnuPG is a free software implementation of PGP from the cryptologie community GNU Project. It is widely used to protect all kinds of data – for example, important chat conversations, emails, and BitCoin wallets. Fortunately, the GNU Project has released an urgent update that closes a specific vulnerability used by the team from tel Aviv. So, as long as all the manufacturers are creating software and hardware depending on the GnuPG update their system to worry about.

However, the PITA is fresh evidence that our everyday devices are still extremely vulnerable. Internal components continuously generate electromagnetic pulses issuing valuable information and cybersleuthing to find new ways to stop them.

Here, the case takes an interesting turn. The team PITA claims that their method also works against RSA and other forms of encryption, and they intend to extend the range of your device. To protect your computer from attack rolls, lying a meter away from him, it seems quite feasible – but what if such a device will be able to work from another room or from another floor? published
