New acoustic attack steals data from keystrokes with 95% accuracy - Lemmy.world
New acoustic attack steals data from keystrokes with 95% accuracy::A team of
researchers from British universities has trained a deep learning model that can
steal data from keyboard keystrokes recorded using a microphone with an accuracy
of 95%.
Assuming that this does not only work on English words, this is actually really terrifying.
I have to assume it could be modified to work on any language. You just have to know the keyboard layout for the language in question do you know what to listen for. Languages with a lot of accents like French maybe could be slightly more complicated but I seriously doubt that it couldn’t be done. I’m honestly not sure how the keyboard is set up for something like Chinese with so very many characters but again if this can be done, that can be done with some dedication and know how.
