Silly question, could you put a telescopic sight, on a thermal camera to detect the bits of output. Or would the IR get absorbed by glass windows etc, making that impossible.
- jkaunisv1 12y agoIn my computer security class in uni, my professor quickly listed various ways your computer could be compromised in ways you wouldn't expect and this was one of them. He didn't get into detail unfortunately, just that things could be inferred from the heat of your monitor/computer. He also mentioned driving a truck with a receiver into the path of a Line of Sight connection, and just plain using the telescope to look at your monitor if it's facing a window. Reading about Starfighter recently reminds me of that class..our assignments were to perform buffer overflow and other attacks, it was a lot of fun!
