Killing pc's without virus awesome

USB Tester

The USB Killer stick that made headlines last year for being a brutal death to your innocent hardware is now up for sale in its upgraded USB Killer V2.0. The killer USB, priced at $49.95, can electrocute your device with 240 volts until it dies.

We have come across USB drives that have malware hidden inside. The malware makes your device its home as soon as the USB drive is connected to your computer. The health of your computer starts degrading and it moves towards a slow death.

There are another kind of ruthless USB Killer drives which can kill your computer or any hardware device with a USB port almost instantly and that too painfully. Last year, we heard about a USB killer . Now, the USB Killer V2.0 has become powerful than ever and is available on usbkill.com at a cost of $49.95.

The USB Kill V2.0 can permanently damage any device with a USB port, e.g., a computer, laptop, DVR, television, etc. An important point to consider is that the USB Kill is not made to serve any evil intention. Instead, it’s a power surge test device that can be used by hardware developers to observe the effects of such a disastrous thing on their hardware.

USB Kill

When the USB Kill stick is connected to the USB port of a device, it charges itself using the 5V power line until the voltage value reaches 240V. It then discharges itself into the data lines of the USB port causing a power surge leading to malfunctioning of the device. The charge and discharge cycle repeats until the USB Kill is removed from the device.

Almost 95 percent of the devices couldn’t stand in front the USB Killer V2.0 during the tests, says the company. However, the latest MacBooks were the only devices which weren’t affected by the USB Killer v2.0 stick.

If you want to test your hardware but don’t want to burn your device, the company has made a USB Killer Tester which protects your hardware when the USB Kill stick is used to test its surge protection capabilities. The Tester Shield also doubles up as a data protection tech. It prevents juice jacking data thefts when your device is connected to a USB port. The is available at $13.95.

Lunix malware havoc

The Krebs DDoS attacks have proven that the IoT landscape is a fertile ground that can breed huge botnets capable of launching massive DDoS assaults. As such, it should be no surprise that malware authors are now focusing their efforts on this sector and putting out new threats in the hopes of building the next Mirai botnet. One of the latest additions to the IoT malware market is a trojan codenamed Linux/NyaDrop, recently reverse engineered by MalwareMustDie, the same researcher who discovered the Mirai malware. MalwareMustDie points out in his research that this binary appeared in May, but was somewhat simplistic and not that common. Things changed after the Krebs DDoS attacks, and a new sample has appeared on the market, with the malware’s author most likely drawn back to the IoT landscape by Mirai’s success. Just like most IoT malware nowadays, NyaDrop’s author relies on brute-forcing Internet-exposed IoT devices using their default credentials. In a conversati...
