SmartAttack uses smartwatches to steal data from air-gapped systems

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-03-23 11:08:00

A new attack dubbed 'SmartAttack' uses smartwatches as a covert ultrasonic signal receiver to exfiltrate data from physically isolated (air-gapped) systems. Air-gapped systems, commonly deployed in mission-critical environments such as government facilities, weapons platforms, and nuclear power plants, are physically isolated from external networks to prevent malware infections and data theft. Despite this isolation, they remain vulnerable to compromise through insider threats such as rogue em

Rohde and Schwarz AMIQ Modulation Generator Teardown

news.ycombinator.com Electronics Etc... 2026-03-20 03:51:27

Introduction Every few months, a local company auctions off all kinds of lab, production and test equipment. I shouldn’t be subscribed to their email list but I am, and that’s one way I end up with more stuff that I don’t really need. During a recent auction, I got my hands on a Rohde & Schwarz AMIQ, an I/Q modulation generator, for a grand total of $45. Add to that another 30% for the auction fee and taxes and you’re still paying much less than what others would pay for a round of golf? But i

A few observations after Apple’s WWDC25 keynote The title of my article obviously refers to the new UI Apple presented on 9 June, which they call Liquid Glass. I won’t beat around the bush: my very first impression is that we’re in UI emergency territory, but we won’t be able to break this particular glass.

After going in deep in product, I found myself drawn to a different challenge: making other developers more productive. As one of my biggest mentors would always say: “Developer productivity is always ‘Multiplier work’, especially in places where you have a lot of developers. By saving a couple minutes from every developer, every day, you’ve saved years of human life waiting for stuff.” The project that really forged me was the Office migration from Source Depot to Git.
