How can a simple cable endanger your phone? Gaël, a cybersecurity specialist, knows the technique well. He first shows us the cables in question on the Internet, between 30 and 200 euros each. Most are out of stock, so he replicated a homemade one. “What we have in the cable is exactly the little black chip that is here”he shows in the TF1 8 p.m. report to be found at the top of this article.
He picks up a phone and fakes an attack. Via a computer program, the cable connects to the Internet and sends the photos from the phone to Gaël’s computer. “We are here on a machine that can perform a thousand actions per second. A blink of an eye is enough to execute an attack”continues Gaël.
