Lost24

The ingenuity of cybercriminals in capturing data is forever increasing, hackers have now created an iPhone cable that makes it easy to take control over a computer.

A network security expert going by nickname MG has showed that you can use a regular Lighting-USB cable to capture data. All that’s needed is to introduce WiFi implant into the cable, thanks to which the cybercriminal can execute remote commands on the targeted computer. According to Cyberdefence24 a hacker can lock the computer screen and steal the system password.

The only thing that hackers needs to do is to physically swap the cables, according to the expert, similar actions can be performed with any other cable.
