Thermal Steganography: A New Way to Steal Data from Air-Gapped Computers Using Heat and Fan Noise
Abstract: Nowadays, high-security computers are "air-gapped," meaning they are not connected to the internet to prevent hacking. Cybercriminals are increasingly using direct, physical methods to access and take data instead of relying on internet-based attacks. This paper introduces a new cybersecurity threat called Thermal-Secret. Most existing heat-based attacks are very slow and fail if the room temperature changes. To solve this, we developed a Slope-Based method. Instead of looking at how …
