Don’t think your computer device is safe without a WiFi connection! ZDnet reports that Mordechai Guri, a researcher at the University of Israel, has developed a new hacking technique that can hack through RAM memory modules “over the air”.
The technique, called “AIR-FI,” can be used to hack into devices even if they are completely independent and not connected to the Internet, mainly through the electromagnetic waves generated by the operation of electronic products and by planting malicious code to manipulate the current generated by the memory and adjust it to the same 2,400 GHz as the WiFi signal spectrum.
In the test, even if the computer itself does not have a WiFi network card, it can transmit data at 100 b/s after being hacked and receive it to the other end of the device with WiFi connection, such as cell phones, computers and even smart watches.
Mass users do not have to worry about the threat of “AIR-FI”, after all, most people’s computers are equipped with WiFi, hackers have other more convenient methods, mainly affecting businesses, government units, computers used to store confidential information, often deliberately cut off all network hardware, if implanted with malicious software, there is still the risk of remote theft of information.
