Today's Cybersecurity Lesson: Don't plug in random thumb drives

Picture this: you find a thumb drive in a parking lot, and it says SPACEX on it. You’re dying of curiosity. It might contain the plans for the first city on Mars!
Don’t. Don’t do it. Just walk away!

NEVER plug in a USB flash drive that you find out in the wild. You don’t know what could be on it! Malware from a hacker, or worse, a “USB Killer” that contains a capacitor that stores up a charge and then discharges it, killing your hardware.

But what about those lovely free thumbdrives you’re getting in swag bags at conferences?
Forget it. They’re not worth it. Instead, buy yourself a nice clean SSD drive.

I usually teardown whatever electronics I found in the wild.

O the days when we would pick up usb drives from vendor tables. We would go back to the room and write code to them and go place them back on the table. Then repeat.

This is why we have assumed breach policies and procedures.

I got one thumb drive from a job fair and the stupid thing was 8 or 16GB but very slow and would frequently have input/output errors, and had files on it that could not be deleted, every time you plug it back in the files just re-appear

Why is the burden on us, the user who actually paid for our computer? Instead on the supposedly "educated" engineers working under multibillion-dollar corporations to make their devices secure?
