Hi, everyone, welcome back to let's talk about scams. I'm

21
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.680

and also our mailed newsletter that we send out once

27
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:50.560
a month at the beginning of each month. So today

28
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:55.680
I want to talk about USB and charging cables and

29
00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.959
power banks if you but he probably has a ton

30
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:03.560
of them, right. There are these cables right here. You

31
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:08.560
can find little short ones. This one is particular to

32
00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:12.680
an iPhone with the way the end is there. This

33
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:17.039
is a longer one that is for. To be honest

34
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:19.719
with you, I don't remember which device of ours this

35
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:22.879
one is for, but it's not an iPhone because the

36
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:25.360
end of it here you can see, is not set

37
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.919
up for an iPhone. But this is just another type

38
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:34.879
of charging cable USB cable. So how do you know

39
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:39.520
if the cable that you're using or who knows? You

40
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:41.919
could have ten different cables, right. We keep them in

41
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:44.360
our backpacks for when we travel. We keep them up

42
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:48.759
by our desk at work, we keep them in our office.

43
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:52.120
At home, we keep them in the drawer by the

44
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.960
telephone where you're going to charge your devices at home.

45
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:58.840
I'm sure they're all over the place. But how do

46
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:04.000
you know if it's a good charging cable USB cable

47
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:11.360
that doesn't have malicious hardware on it? That malicious hardware,

48
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:14.680
if it's installed in that they can intercept the data

49
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.639
once you've got it connected. They can eavesdrop on your

50
00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:25.039
phone calls and your messages, or they can actually take

51
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:30.439
over your device, your cell phone, your computer, whatever you

52
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:31.280
have it hooked up to.

53
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:33.520
And this actually started.

54
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.439
This malicious hardware in these cables started way back in

55
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:42.039
two thousand and eight, but the technology was very rare,

56
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:45.360
it was expensive, so it was the cases were very

57
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.520
few and far between. But with the way the technology

58
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:52.479
has advanced over the years, we're finding it more and

59
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:57.360
more out there, and so you know, it becomes how

60
00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:01.199
do you know you know, how can you tell if

61
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:06.639
your USB cables have malicious hardware on it? Well, there

62
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:14.039
is a lot of times they'll say that you need

63
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:16.759
like a two D or a three D scanning device

64
00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:20.759
to find it. Well, it used to be that a

65
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:24.240
two D scanning device could find all of it. Well,

66
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:26.959
now there's actually some of the malicious hardware that you

67
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:31.920
need a three D scanning device, which is like a

68
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:35.879
three D CT scan, which is not something that you

69
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:40.120
would normally have around your house. Those are those huge

70
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:45.480
scanning devices that you find in labs and medical offices

71
00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:50.199
and things like that. So, but there are some other

72
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.639
things that you can do to kind of keep an

73
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:57.519
eye out for to then know that, hey, maybe this

74
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:02.560
cable is not is not what it should be. One

75
00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:05.000
of the things some of the warning signs you could

76
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:09.120
look for are if you know what the brand and

77
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:12.399
or the logos look like, what their markings look like.

78
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:15.360
If you see that they're a little bit off, that

79
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:19.000
could be an indication that it's a it's a it's

80
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:25.399
a bad cable. If when the chargers are plugged in

81
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:30.079
to your device, all of a sudden, you get or

82
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:35.360
i'm sorry, when they're not plugged in to your device,

83
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:38.360
all of a sudden, you get a lot of heat

84
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.800
coming from them when they're not plugged in, that could

85
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:45.800
be an indication that there's something wrong with it, that

86
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:47.439
it's got malicious software.

87
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:53.360
There are what's called oh.

88
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:59.839
Dot m as in Mary g is in George Malicious

89
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:07.800
Cable Detector and it claims to detect all malicious USB cables.

90
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:10.040
Now that's something you're going to have to buy.

91
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:12.319
And I did just look it up a little bit

92
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.519
ago and it took me to the manufacturer's page and

93
00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:19.399
they sell it for I believe it was thirty nine

94
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.120
dollars and ninety nine cents. Now, can you find it

95
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:26.319
on Amazon? Most likely, I haven't checked, but you can

96
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.560
find a lot of things on Amazon. So if you're

97
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:32.399
an Amazon shopper, you could just type in malicious Cable

98
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:34.360
Detector or type in THEO.

99
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:37.519
Dot MG malicious Cable Detector.

100
00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:41.959
There's also something called data blockers, so that's going to

101
00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:46.600
benefit you if you are just charging using your cable

102
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:49.680
to charge and you do not want to transfer data,

103
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:55.439
so it will blocker will ensure that no data is

104
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:03.439
extracted from your device. Another thing is there are these

105
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:08.519
detection services out there, so if you are dealing with

106
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:14.439
extremely sensitive confidential information, you might want to consider hiring

107
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:18.319
one of these detection services. There's one out there called

108
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.480
lumah Field, which is mentioned in this article. I don't

109
00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:27.720
know anything about the company, but the article mentions it

110
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.480
they will detect malicious cables. They claim to detect malicious

111
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.680
cables with one hundred percent accuracy. It's going to come

112
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:38.000
with a fee, but again it's one of those things

113
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.519
you're going to have to make a determination for your

114
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:44.079
situation if.

115
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:47.600
You want to go that route. So another thing is.

116
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:58.680
How can you tell if your charger is stealing your data?

117
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:07.279
And let's see, I apologize, but I am I'm looking

118
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:08.360
at these articles.

119
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:09.600
This is an article.

120
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:14.120
The first article was from PCWorld and it was titled

121
00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:18.639
let me see what the title was here. The title

122
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:23.000
of that article was it's PCWorld dot com. It was

123
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:28.800
written by Dominic Bailey on February twenty six, twenty twenty five.

124
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:32.240
How to tell if your USB cable is hiding malicious

125
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.799
hacker hardware. Now, this article that I'm going to reference

126
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:41.120
on how to tell if a USB charger is stealing

127
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:53.840
my data was written by WNE Security on January thirtieth,

128
00:08:54.159 --> 00:09:01.240
twenty twenty five. So again, there's some different ways of

129
00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:06.000
indicators that you might be able to see if your

130
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:09.799
charger is actually if a USB charger is actually stealing

131
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:16.159
your data. So, because most of those attacks usually operate

132
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:20.480
behind the scenes. It's hard to tell unless you know

133
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:25.480
you had uh this detection. You know, company was able

134
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:31.240
to look at all of your your hardware, so there

135
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.440
could be unexpected prompts on your device. So let's say

136
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:40.200
your cell phone displays a data transfer or file sharing

137
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.279
notification when you've got it connected to your charger. Well,

138
00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:47.399
that's a red flag because the charger should only be

139
00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:52.039
supplying power. You should not be getting any notifications that

140
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:55.360
your data is transferring or a file is being shared.

141
00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:02.480
But also look for abnormal device abnormal behavior with your devices.

142
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:09.279
So if a USB charger is compromised, it could make

143
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.720
your let's and we're going to use your cell phone

144
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:15.840
because a lot of people when they're using their USB chargers,

145
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:19.919
you see them on their cell phones. It could slow

146
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.000
down how your cell phone's operating. You notice that things

147
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:27.799
are really slow. All of a sudden, your phone just

148
00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:32.320
shuts down. If you have a touch screen, all of

149
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.120
a sudden it's not working. You're touching your screen and

150
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:41.440
it's not doing anything, or your phone just automatically reboots.

151
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:45.720
Some users have also reported some just unusual pop ups

152
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:49.759
that they all of a sudden get or unauthorized request

153
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.279
to access something on your phone. All of these things

154
00:10:53.480 --> 00:11:01.960
are abnormal when all you're doing is charging charging your phone.

155
00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:08.840
So again, if you're able to tell if a USB

156
00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:14.200
charger has been physically modified. Now, again, unless you know

157
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:17.279
what you're looking for, it could be extremely difficult to

158
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.159
know if it's been physically modified. But one of the

159
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:26.399
things you could look at is if a charger, maybe

160
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:29.720
you know they normally have a tendency the USB ones

161
00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:33.200
to be all a certain size, but all of a sudden,

162
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:38.759
this one looks bigger, bulkier than normal. Well, I would

163
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:41.600
stay away from that one because means it could have

164
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:45.399
additional wires inside of it, It could have additional hardware

165
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:54.279
inside of it that's making it look bulkier. Let's see

166
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:59.159
unrecognized applications or files. If all of a sudden, you

167
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.080
and this is let's assume you have not just done

168
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:05.720
an software update on your phone, because you know how

169
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:09.000
sometimes when you do those software updates on your phone,

170
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:13.360
some of your settings change and things look different. So

171
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.320
for this scenario, we're going to assume that you did

172
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:19.799
not just update your phone, but now all of a sudden,

173
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.120
you notice that there's new apps or some of the

174
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:28.559
settings have changed. Again, or unauthorized file transfers. All of

175
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:33.120
those things are unrecognized applications that you might want to

176
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:39.720
consider using a different USB charger. So here's some ways

177
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:47.320
to protect yourself from USB data theft. So we talked

178
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:52.559
about data blockers. They're a device that sit between your

179
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:57.399
charging cable and the USB port and what it does

180
00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:03.000
is it only allows the power to pass through because

181
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.519
it's blocking data transmissions. So that could be something to

182
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:11.879
look for. And again, if you just go into your

183
00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:19.600
Internet browser and search data reputable data blocking adapters or devices,

184
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:23.080
you're going to find or you could actually say, what

185
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:29.919
are the best data blocking adapters for twenty twenty five,

186
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:33.279
and you're going to find a lot of articles are.

187
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:33.759
Going to come up.

188
00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:36.120
You're going to find them on the first page of

189
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:39.759
your screen. When the results come up, it's going to

190
00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.240
be from a lot of tech companies. And because a

191
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:46.639
lot of tech companies they evaluate these products on a

192
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.159
regular basis, and you can go down through there and

193
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:52.840
look at the ones that they highly recommend, and they're

194
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:55.759
going to tell you why they highly recommend them, what

195
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:58.559
the pros and cons are. They might even have a

196
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.000
link to the company's way website.

197
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:03.840
And maybe they might have a discount code.

198
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.039
You don't know, but they go through on a regular

199
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.799
basis and they they evaluate these and they monitor them

200
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:15.399
and they test them in order to give you all

201
00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:16.240
of this information.

202
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:19.080
So that is a great way to find.

203
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:23.759
On a lot of these products, what's been tested and

204
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.000
what they feel are the best ones out.

205
00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:28.639
There for you. There's a lot of.

206
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:34.120
Trusted chargers and cables, so make sure you're using it

207
00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:40.080
from a reputable manufacturer. In that first article they did

208
00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:43.039
list a few of them.

209
00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:45.240
Let me get back to that here.

210
00:14:47.639 --> 00:14:52.440
Where they listed them, Oh, you know, from reputable sellers.

211
00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:57.360
And this is back in thepcworld dot com article. They

212
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:03.399
talk about reputable sellers being Anchor, Apple, Balkan, in.

213
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:05.559
You Green.

214
00:15:06.039 --> 00:15:10.879
They have rigorous quality control processes that prevent malicious hardware

215
00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:13.440
parts from making it into their cables.

216
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:20.120
So again that's Anchor, Apple, Balkan, and Green.

217
00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:26.279
So that's just a couple different ones that the author

218
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.200
of this article in PC world has suggested our reputable

219
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:37.559
companies to buy from. And so getting back to how

220
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:44.039
to protect yourself, Both Android and Apple devices have settings

221
00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:49.480
that allow users to disable data transfer when charging via

222
00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:54.879
a USB. So for Android users, you're going to go

223
00:15:54.919 --> 00:16:01.240
to your settings and then look for connected devices and

224
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:09.799
go to USB preferences and select charge only. For iPhones,

225
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:16.840
you just select do not trust when you're prompted by

226
00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:21.840
an unknown device. So basically, when an unknown device is

227
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.600
plugged in for an iPhone, you should get a prompt

228
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:29.200
that says trust or do not trust. Trust this device

229
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:31.679
or do not trust it. You're going to want to

230
00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:34.720
click on do not trust it, and that should allow

231
00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:40.000
charging only and no transfer of data. Now, again there's

232
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:46.559
always updates to software on cell phones, and so this

233
00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:49.080
is one thing in particular that when you do do

234
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:51.559
a software update that you're going to want to go

235
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:55.399
back into your into your settings and make sure that

236
00:16:55.759 --> 00:17:01.279
it is still selected as charge only you're Android, and

237
00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:05.480
make sure when you're plugging your USB cable in that

238
00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:08.400
it gives you the prompt to select to that this

239
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:13.160
is a trusted device or not to trust it, and

240
00:17:13.200 --> 00:17:17.839
you're going to click do not trust. Another thing is

241
00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:21.039
and I see this all the time, and I actually,

242
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:24.200
you know, up until probably a couple of years ago,

243
00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:28.079
I used to do this a lot, not even thinking

244
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:33.319
about it, and especially in airplanes they even have them,

245
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:36.799
you know, on airplanes, and it's the little ports for

246
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:41.680
the USB cables where you can charge your phone, so

247
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.240
you can, you know, they sometimes in airports they have

248
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.880
the tables set up where they have all the chargers there.

249
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:49.759
That you can plug into.

250
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:53.240
Or now they're kind of by your seats, below your seats,

251
00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:55.880
or maybe behind your seat where you can just sit

252
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:58.960
there and be on your phone and charge it. Or

253
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:02.119
if you're on the plane, now they'll have up by

254
00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:05.160
where the screen is like right in front of you,

255
00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:09.319
you'll see the little ports to plug your USB charging

256
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:13.400
cable into, or sometimes they're down below in between the seats.

257
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:18.440
Those are all public places, and how do you know

258
00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:25.759
that someone hasn't installed malicious hardware inside there that once

259
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:29.680
you plug your USB port into it and then plug

260
00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:32.440
the other end of it into your phone, that it's

261
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:35.240
all of a sudden going to compromise your phone, and

262
00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:39.119
like we talked about earlier, maybe even take over your phone,

263
00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:42.720
or maybe it's just lurking in the background watching everything

264
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:45.680
you do on your phone. And if you then have

265
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:51.200
you know, banking apps and or you know, anything financially

266
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:54.880
related or apps. You know, you have your Amazon app

267
00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:57.359
on there, and you go in and your credit card

268
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:00.920
now is on your Amazon site, so there's a lot

269
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:03.440
of different things they can get into on your phone.

270
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:10.519
So always use always plug your power adapter into a

271
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:15.519
wall outlet so you can a lot of time, or

272
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:18.119
you can buy what I have now are these.

273
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:20.960
Plugs.

274
00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:23.799
One side of the plug has the prongs to plug

275
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:26.880
it into the wall outlet. The other side is where

276
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:30.359
you would plug your USB in, So you're plugging your

277
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:35.200
USB cable into a plug that goes into a wall outlet.

278
00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:39.839
And I've noticed on a lot of airplanes now they'll

279
00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:44.079
actually have it's set up where you can plug it

280
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:47.279
in as if you're plugging it into a wall outlet,

281
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:52.279
so you're not actually putting your USB device directly into

282
00:19:54.559 --> 00:20:02.079
a USB charging station, so be very very careful with that.

283
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:06.480
That's the same as if you remember card readers, when

284
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:09.079
those originally came out, and they're still out there, right,

285
00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:14.359
everybody was finding was finding them at gas stations and

286
00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:18.079
the outside pumps, right because nobody's out there, it's easy

287
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:19.359
for someone to just stick them in.

288
00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:20.079
Same thing.

289
00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:23.200
Right, when you're in public places, it's easy for someone

290
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:25.839
to sit there and just put it in there, and

291
00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:29.680
you know no one's monitoring them. So just plug into

292
00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:34.079
a wall outlet, and you're going to want to make

293
00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:38.559
sure you regularly scan your device for malware. We talked

294
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:42.960
a lot before about why it's so important to have

295
00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:47.680
antivirus anti malware on all of your devices, not just

296
00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:52.799
your computers, your laptops, your iPads, but your phone is

297
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:56.920
a mobile computer that you're carrying around with you and

298
00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:01.240
it is used all the time, so that needs to

299
00:21:01.319 --> 00:21:05.319
have your antivirus anti malware solution on there as well.

300
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:09.680
And a lot of these subscriptions that you buy they

301
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:13.559
allow it on multiple devices, so it could just be

302
00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:17.359
downloading an app or you know, in order to then

303
00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:22.160
log into it to recognize it as one of your devices,

304
00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:25.400
but have it on there and make sure that it's

305
00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:28.279
updated and make sure that it's running all of the time.

306
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:33.519
So it will help you determine if you have malware

307
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:37.839
or a virus, or you're plugging into something that has malware.

308
00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:40.359
It detects a lot of these things.

309
00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:46.799
So if you find yourself in the situation that maybe

310
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:51.000
your device has been compromised by a USB charger, what

311
00:21:51.079 --> 00:21:54.960
are some things you can do well immediately disconnect from

312
00:21:54.960 --> 00:22:00.680
that charger immediately and you know, run may go in

313
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:03.839
and make sure that your antivirus and anti malware is

314
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:08.680
running to see if if it's detected any any virus

315
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:12.720
or malware on your device. You know, by running that scan,

316
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:18.640
I would anything that you have on that device that

317
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:22.119
has access to So you basically have to say what

318
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:25.359
is on my device that if someone were in it,

319
00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:28.799
they would they could get access to, and then you're

320
00:22:28.839 --> 00:22:32.599
going to need to change those passwords to those accounts

321
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:37.000
that someone could have gotten access to on your device. Uh,

322
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.599
sometimes depending on what you have on there, you might

323
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.480
need to consider doing a factory reset. Again, that's a

324
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:48.720
personal choice. What people have on on their devices is

325
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:53.079
all different based on their personal situations. So but that's

326
00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:57.559
that's an option. And you know, always then monitor your

327
00:22:57.599 --> 00:23:02.400
accounts for unusual activity. It's a good practice to monitor

328
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:06.160
them anyways on a regular basis. I've talked to people

329
00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:09.119
that monitorm twice a day. I've talked to some that

330
00:23:09.200 --> 00:23:11.720
monitor them once a week, you know, once a day,

331
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:16.960
once every other day, or they they they don't have

332
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:19.319
the time to monitor them on a regular basis, so

333
00:23:19.359 --> 00:23:22.240
they have alerts set up with their accounts so they

334
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:27.000
know every single purchase that's happening every single you know,

335
00:23:27.559 --> 00:23:30.799
credit or payment or that happens on that account, so

336
00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:33.880
they get alerted right away and can determine if there's

337
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:43.480
been some fraudulent activity. So the next thing we're going

338
00:23:43.559 --> 00:23:45.799
to talk about, well, I do want to go back

339
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:50.160
at the beginning when I mentioned about THEO dot MG

340
00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:56.839
malicious Cable Detector. We did just find out that it's

341
00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:00.680
not on Amazon, but you can just Google or whatever

342
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:06.119
internet browser you use. Just google malicious Cable Detector, BUYO

343
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:12.160
dot MG and you'll find the website. We did a

344
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.960
quick Google search and it showed that it was sold

345
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:22.440
by and it's h a K five dot org. But again,

346
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:28.200
you can just google the malicious Cable Detector by O

347
00:24:28.440 --> 00:24:31.240
dot MG. That's the one that was referenced in the

348
00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:38.079
article that this PC World writer has evaluated if.

349
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:38.640
You want to get it.

350
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:41.039
And I believe the website that I had gotten to

351
00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:44.680
earlier was the hakfive dot org website, which showed that

352
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:47.880
it sold for thirty nine dollars and ninety nine cents

353
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:52.440
if somebody was interested in buying those to test their

354
00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:59.920
USB cables for malicious software. So there's another article about

355
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:06.319
and PC magazine did this one just about a week ago,

356
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:09.640
ten days ago. It was updated on March thirty first,

357
00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:16.680
twenty twenty five on the best portable chargers and power

358
00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:21.160
banks for twenty twenty five. So I'm not sure if

359
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:24.279
you guys know. Power banks have been around for a

360
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:31.079
long time. So basically what they are is they are

361
00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:33.000
they look like I have two of them here, So

362
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:35.319
here's one we have and here's another one, and you

363
00:25:35.359 --> 00:25:36.359
can see.

364
00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:37.039
Which side is it?

365
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:38.720
On this side, I don't know if you could see

366
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.680
it where the USB cable goes and then your device

367
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:44.200
cable can go in there.

368
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:47.200
Same thing on here and the end you have.

369
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:49.359
Where the USB is going to go, and then where

370
00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:52.400
your device end of it is going to go. What

371
00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:58.400
you do, especially if you're traveling, in order to not

372
00:25:58.559 --> 00:26:04.960
be tempted if your device is getting low on a charge,

373
00:26:05.079 --> 00:26:07.000
you don't want to be tempted to plug a USB

374
00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:12.920
cable into those public USB outlets, And if you don't

375
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:16.880
have the plug version to plug into an outlet and

376
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:21.119
then plug your USB cable into that, you're going to

377
00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:23.160
definitely want to make sure you have these as a

378
00:26:23.200 --> 00:26:28.039
precaution so you can get There's all different sizes, shapes,

379
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:30.640
all different, and they sell a whole bunch of different ones.

380
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:35.720
And what you do with those is you charge them

381
00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:37.839
up ahead of time, and you can get some of

382
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:42.759
them that will allow you to then take that power bank.

383
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:47.759
It's banking that charge and then when your device is

384
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:53.200
running low, you can use your USB cable to plug

385
00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:57.480
it into the power bank and then it's taking the

386
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:00.440
power from the bank and putting it over into your device.

387
00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:04.799
So it's basically recharging your device. And there are some

388
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:08.680
of them out there that will allow you to charge,

389
00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:12.880
you know, three different devices, have them plugged in at

390
00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:15.559
the same time, you know, to get power. So, as

391
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:17.559
I said, there's a ton of different ones out there,

392
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:21.480
and some of them will hold a certain amount you know,

393
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:24.759
of power. Other ones will hold more power. Again, it's

394
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:26.960
a personal choice as to as to what you want

395
00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:29.720
to get, but those things are really great to have

396
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:34.920
as preventative from having your device run low on battery

397
00:27:35.079 --> 00:27:37.839
and then having you be tempted to plug into one

398
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:45.839
of those public USB outlets. So the best portable chargers

399
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:48.960
and power banks for twenty twenty five. This is from

400
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:52.240
an article from PC Magazine, and this is exactly what

401
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:54.359
I did. When I looked it up, I typed in

402
00:27:55.319 --> 00:27:59.119
the best portable chargers or the best power banks for

403
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:02.480
twenty to twenty and I came up to this PC

404
00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:08.640
Magazine article. And so they've gone through and they have

405
00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:13.200
tested a whole bunch of different portable chargers and power

406
00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:17.519
banks and came up with what their results have found

407
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:20.599
to be the best ones. Now again, this was updated

408
00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:25.039
on March thirty first, twenty twenty five. If you're searching

409
00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:29.240
for this in a couple of months, say June, you

410
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:32.440
might find another updated version, maybe was updated the end

411
00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:36.160
of May, because they frequently go in and retest and

412
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:40.359
make updates to these articles. So here are some they

413
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:46.680
determined for laptops. The best power bank is Anchor Laptop

414
00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:50.279
Power Bank and it shows here that it cost one

415
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:53.440
hundred and four dollars and forty nine cents from Amazon,

416
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:57.160
and you can click on the on the arrow to

417
00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:01.519
go down to the details to find out why they

418
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:07.160
have determined that it is best for laptops and what

419
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:12.240
they have determined as the best for affordable power delivery

420
00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:16.720
is going to be Anchor Portable Charger and it's sold

421
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:19.720
on Amazon for forty nine dollars and ninety nine cents.

422
00:29:20.279 --> 00:29:23.480
Now they even have.

423
00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:26.559
One that says it's the most stylish in case you're

424
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:31.480
somebody that needs to have needs to be in style

425
00:29:31.559 --> 00:29:33.799
and have everything. I don't know if it would be

426
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:38.279
match or be the latest thing. Maybe I'm not sure

427
00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:42.440
what they mean by style, but they have it here

428
00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:47.480
as the Nimble Champ Portable Charger and you can get

429
00:29:47.480 --> 00:29:50.200
it for fifty nine dollars and ninety nine cents on Nimble.

430
00:29:51.079 --> 00:29:55.000
They have a category it's called most Durable. Is an

431
00:29:55.319 --> 00:30:01.000
l come Nest out rugged power bank that sold for

432
00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:04.799
fifty nine to ninety nine on Amazon. Here's one that

433
00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:12.279
they've said is the best for wireless charging. And now

434
00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:14.720
I'm probably going to botch how to say this, but

435
00:30:14.839 --> 00:30:21.599
it's Statecci Duo Wireless power Charger power stand and it's

436
00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:24.599
ninety nine dollars and ninety nine cents on Amazon. So

437
00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:28.319
you see how these articles they these people have already

438
00:30:28.359 --> 00:30:31.519
done the work for you and tested these products out,

439
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:35.119
and now they're telling you their findings and what they

440
00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:39.240
believe are the best ones for different situations. Because, as

441
00:30:39.279 --> 00:30:43.279
we said, everybody's situation is different. You know, someone might

442
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:46.759
use exclusively a laptop and so they're looking for that.

443
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:51.000
Someone might want to know the best affordable one. That's

444
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:54.039
what you know, their their top pick's going to be.

445
00:30:55.839 --> 00:30:58.759
Somebody might be into the whole style and want to

446
00:30:58.759 --> 00:31:03.319
look for the most stylish on Again, it's a personal choice.

447
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:07.000
But then you know you can get down into the

448
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:10.240
details and find out, well, why did they pick the

449
00:31:10.279 --> 00:31:14.880
Anchor Laptop power bank you know as the best for laptops,

450
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:20.079
and it'll give you the information you know, like it

451
00:31:20.200 --> 00:31:23.920
says it features one hundred and sixty five watt output,

452
00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:27.799
which means it can charge bigger, more power hungry devices

453
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:31.279
like a laptop, just as it can juice up a

454
00:31:31.319 --> 00:31:34.160
phone or a tablet. And it can charge up to

455
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:37.759
four devices and even comes with built in cables. And

456
00:31:37.799 --> 00:31:39.640
then it goes on to tell you who it's for.

457
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:43.680
If you often need to charge a laptop when you're

458
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:46.960
nowhere near an outlet, this can lower your stress levels

459
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:51.160
while rising your batteries charge. It's more expensive than other options,

460
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:56.160
so people who tend to charge smaller devices like phones

461
00:31:56.240 --> 00:31:59.839
or tablets are better off with more affordable choices. So

462
00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:05.960
there's a lot of information here on all these different

463
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:10.680
best picks that they have here. So again, it can

464
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:14.400
be very daunting trying to figure out which power bank,

465
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:20.079
which charging cables are the best for your situation, depending

466
00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:23.200
on what you need it for. Like we just said,

467
00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:28.680
some people might only use laptops. Some people might not

468
00:32:28.960 --> 00:32:32.519
need the power that a laptop charger is going to

469
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:36.279
have or power bank's going to have because they're charging

470
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:39.559
smaller devices like phones or iPads, so the more affordable

471
00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:43.559
one would work for them. These articles are fantastic, and

472
00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:46.599
as with anything you know, you can just go in

473
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:51.680
to your Internet browser search and say the best USB

474
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:59.119
cable chargers, the best USB data transfer devices?

475
00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:01.920
You know, So, how.

476
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:07.839
Do I stop my Android phone? Or how do I

477
00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:11.839
put my Android phone in charge only mode? It'll give

478
00:33:11.880 --> 00:33:15.359
you the instructions. How do I put my iPhone in

479
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:18.759
a charge only mode? It'll give you the instructions on

480
00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:22.319
how to do that. So there's a lot of things

481
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:26.039
that you can find on the Internet, and probably one

482
00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:29.240
of the most important things is when you're out in

483
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:33.720
those public areas, please make sure you're not plugging your

484
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:38.400
USB charger into one of the USB outlets. Because nobody

485
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:43.079
is monitoring those USB outlets, you don't know what's inside

486
00:33:43.079 --> 00:33:48.119
of them. There's no deterrent there for someone to come

487
00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:51.640
in and put some malicious stuff in hardware inside of

488
00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:55.319
that in order to read whatever your device has on

489
00:33:55.440 --> 00:34:00.279
it or take over your device. So it would be

490
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:04.839
a good thing to get one of those portable outlet

491
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.519
plugs that have the prongs on the one side to

492
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:11.360
plug into the outlet, but then you have the USB

493
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:14.000
on the other side where you're going to plug your
