The Lounge What is on Your Mind? Wired keyboard sniffing Post 302259550 by Corona688 on Tuesday 18th of November 2008 11:34:38 AM

I think the wired keyboard is safe. It's certainly possible to pick up the emanations from any cable, but that doesn't make it easy, the same way you can't get monitor-sniffing devices off the shelf even though the tech's ten years old. It's something for the government to worry about, sure, but I think TEMPEST's already got that covered. Older keyboards often have shielded cables, too. With a high-gain antenna, I imagine you'd start either hitting walls or finding more than one keyboard...
