Using a USB firewall could be your best defense.
Hackers can use malicious code thats injected to the USBs drivers that will compromise a system.
But who hasnt bought a cheap thumb drive in a hurry.
Enter Robert FisksGitHub project, the USG.
From Fisks description:
Antivirus scanners cannot detect BadUSB because there is no virus to detect.
you’re free to protect yourself from BadUSB by using virtualised operating systems such asQubes.
But the USG is the only plug-and-play BadUSB protection that does not require you to switch operating systems.
It can even protect your legacy and embedded systems running out-of-date software…
The USG contains twoSTM32F4 microprocessorscommunicating over a high-speed serial link.
This internal link forms a firewall barrier that effectively blocks malicious USB commands from reaching your gear.
Why should you trust this gadget?
But while, Fisk is selling them for 60 bucks a pop, the project isopen source.
you’re able to know exactly whats going on under the hood, and build it yourself.
Or maybe theres an IT guy at work that could help out.
