Christof Paar, a professor of electrical engineering at Germany’s University of Bochum who reviewed the findings, said he believed the new research would prompt others to take a closer look at USB technology, and potentially lead to the discovery of more bugs. He urged manufacturers to improve protection of their chips to thwart attacks.
“The manufacturer should make it much harder to change the software that runs on a USB stick,” Paar said. (Reuters)[eap_ad_3]
