With good quality antenna, a dongle device and a few lines of Python language coding, any hacker can access all your keystrokes literally, from them sitting in a van parked outside your house.
This attack can’t be easily patched because of the vulnerability in cheap wireless keyboards used almost everywhere. Bastille, the security research company, states that the attacker can ‘sniff’ whatever the target is typing, giving them the ability to inject their own keystrokes on the victim’s machine.
This isn’t just about generic cheap keyboards, but reputable companies such as Toshiba, Kensington, and HP (almost all major companies) are at risk from this vulnerability.
