With so much enterprise and personal data stuffed inside our devices, most right-thinking people will want to protect themselves against any of these threats. That’s even before we look at systems that use USB to penetrate device security to steal your data, or USB thumb drives used as exploits in organised attacks against key infrastructure. Modified cables are also sometimes used as an exploit attempt by hackers eager to install malware inside of your devices. Not only might cheap cables be poorly made and liable to accidentally damaging your device or setting themselves on fire, but there are other risks. These fakes were likely to cause electric shock or burst into flames if exposed to high voltage, typical in the event of a power surge.
