We'd like to draw attention to a physical host attack strategy that's both easy and cheap to execute, yet pays off handsomely for the attacker if they're successful.
It's cool to make your own PCBs for your DIY Project right? Its Super Easy!

The term "Human Interface Device (HID) attack" or "USB drive-by" is used to describe this kind of hacking.
A USB HID device is a computer input device that uses the USB communication protocol to send and receive data from the computer. Let's say you've got one, and you want to make it type and do other computer stuff, PowerShell, command execution, and website loading. These tools have been developed for some time and can be seen being used as a payload delivery method on TV shows like Mr. Robot.
This is a video for raising awareness about cybersecurity to let you know that incidents like these almost always take place so that you may take appropriate precautions.
Cybersecurity awareness helps educate your employees about the malicious methods used by cybercriminals, how they can be easy targets, how to spot potential threats, and what they can do to avoid falling victim to these insidious threats. It also teaches them how to recognize potential threats and what they can do to avoid falling victim to these insidious threats.
The best part of HID is that it works with any operating system and requires no additional software. The Arduino is nothing more than a generic computer input device. Therefore, Arduino can perform any task that can be performed by hand using a computer's keyboard and mouse.
