Watch out, BatMan - Mr. Freeze may become a reality
 |
Some researchers found a way to steal encrypted data off of hard disks by freezing the RAM in a computer - allowing them to read the keys used to encrypt the data out of RAM. Apparently this can be accomplished using nothing more than a can of compressed air to chill the chips and freeze the data in place - then afterwards putting the chips into another computer and using an advanced program to sift through all of the ones and zeros to extract the keys needed to unlock data on the original machine’s hard drive.
I wonder how many cans of compressed air Mr. Freeze will be able to fit on his utility belt? |
