@marcan42 i’ll assume your motto is “If it ain’t bricked, I’ll brick it” XD
Assume ALL devices are brickable by evil code unless proven otherwise. This isn't news. Most devices make no attempt to protect themselves.

@marcan42 That is also why there is an issue with USB devices getting maliciously modified. -
@DragusCloud Yes, which also wasn't news. "BadUSB" was just someone media whoring what was already evident to every embedded engineer.

@ireneista@SwiftOnSecurity Yes, using devices as an attack vector is a lot more interesting (and difficult). Very useful for APTs too. - Show replies
