Knowledge about USB flash drive protection required by hackers for USB flash drive Trojans

A Hollywood hacker empire once made new humans "hackers" a perfect savior, but is it true in the real world? Recently, Southern Metropolis Daily disclosed an international professional hacker: Alexander Jones (Alexander Jones). What he is best at is inserting a USB flash drive into a Trojan. Next, let's read the story of Alexander Jones.

This job has the money to pay: the most expensive 80 thousand US dollars to detect a security system

Similar to the plot of the blockbuster "golden shell" starring Shi tailong and Arnold previously, some companies have paid for professional hackers like Jones to check the company's security system, the price for a series of tests may be as high as $80 thousand (about $0.48 million ). To get the commission, Jones usually carries out a series of tasks, including trying to enter the company's building, and "black" into the internal system.

Every time Jones leaves a job, he will bring a piece of proof, or "no-death gold medal". Once recognized by an employee or reported an alarm, he can prove his identity. But so far, he has never used this "no-dead gold medal"-it also means that this industry model has never been defeated by the same artifacts played in movies.

Preventive measures: Refer to Hollywood blockbuster "golden shell"

Inserting a USB flash drive into a trojan is not difficult to prevent

Of course, Jones also has some more exciting tasks, which may be similar to the plot in the famous 007 movie. For example, he acted as an executive of a company as "slightly convinced by private visits" and took the opportunity to "steal" confidential information. With the above preparations, we may think that Jones's approach to stealing confidential information is rather brilliant, but what is surprising is that when Jones's great God steals confidential information, the original USB flash drive was inserted into the Trojan.

Don't underestimate this USB flash drive. It can automatically install an imperceptible Trojan Program ("bot") in the system. This Trojan program can be used to link the server prepared by Jones offline, allow the company to access the company's internal system at will, read confidential company information, and pack and take it away.

Preventive measures:

1. Disable Automatic USB playback. Open "Start> Run" and enter "gpedit. msc command. In the displayed "Group Policy" window, select "in Computer Configuration> Manage template> System" and double-click "Disable automatic playback ", select "enabled" on the "Settings" tab, disable the automatic playback device, and select "All Drives.

2. Install 360 security guard and other security software with "USB flash disk security protection". When the USB flash disk is inserted into the computer, the system will automatically detect whether the USB flash disk contains Trojan viruses, isolate risky suspicious programs from the system.

3. Let the computer recognize its own USB flash drive only. Find the hardware ID of the USB flash drive and enter "Gpedit" in "Start> Run. msc opens the Group Policy window, and expands "Computer Configuration> management template> system> device installation restrictions ", double-click "Prohibit installation of devices not described by other policies" on the right, select "enabled" in the pop-up window, and then click "OK, set it to disable USB devices that are not described in the policy.

Are you tired of FBI? Become a hacker!

However, simply relying on the above two items, do not think that the original "international professional hackers" is the same. The case of a major account of Jones's company is handled by a team, most of the team members have worked in Delta special forces, seals, CIA and the FBI, the members of these teams usually have experience in departments such as the President's Special Service Department. Don't worry about "hackers" or "hackers". It's enough to make a large film in this luxurious lineup.

 

Of course, are some international hackers still young people in literature and art? At the end of 2013, new hackers "Guccifer" and "black" caught the personal mailbox of Baron Fels, the screenwriter of the popular English drama "Don ton Manor, the finale of the fourth quarter is "Faster first" six months in advance ". Previously, he had hacked the family mailbox of George Bush and found his self-painted bath bare image in it. The bad taste sent to the Internet to let everyone "Enjoy the adventure "; go to the personal email address of *, the scriptwriter, Candace *, and find that she has not published any new novel, so she simply stole her Twitter account by the way, and sent the document to "benefit fans.
