We aren't allowed to use VGA because it's vulnerable to being sniffed. Everything has to be hdmi or display port/mini display port

- sandworm101 6y agoIt depends on the threat profile. In an emissions secure zone, inside a big metal box like say a ship, the chance of a bug in the monitor's hdmi circuitry can be higher than the risk of the vga being sniffed.
- p_l 6y agoFunnily enough a static configuration HDMI display needs no special circuitry, as it's essentially VGA that didn't pass a DAC and you can spam it directly to LCD matrix.
- _kbh_ 6y agoIf theres a chance of there being a bug in the HDMI circuitry isn't there just as much chance of there being a bug in VGA?.
