What is an OMG Cable and How Does It Work?

Question

Can someone tell me about an OMG Cable and share with me the working principle of how it works?

Answer 1

An OMG cable is a device that resembles a regular charging cable but has a Wi-Fi chip and a very small computer that can simulate a keyboard allowing it to type at a speed of 860 characters per second in a single instance. It has the potential to be used to inject keystrokes into a target device during connection enabling the installation of undesired software or command into the device. The NSA employed a similar alternative that was over $20,000 in cost which has now been reduced to $200.

Hey ppl, I'm a retired computer/IT person, Yet I still find Dale Valskov so informative and straight forward. Thanks for your advise and helping the people...........Great work and love watching.

We need more immeasurably wise and compassionate humans like you on this planet. Thank you for sharing Dale Valskov , Jon. I bet I'm not alone when I say this content found me at the perfect moment, and there are a lot of things here that I needed to hear right now.

Couldn't picture it before, but that's how easy it is for potential blackmail. An interview or meeting with some high value target, you ask to charge your device, then just leave the cable behind and it's wrapskis. Crazy.

"You wanna see something funny while i pull it out" WTF did i walk in on?

Ayo for the first 10 sec “you want to see something funny while I’ll pull IT OUT”

I feel like It does NOT hack your cell phone.

---

if this guy could have hacked a phone remotely without using a malware link or using stupid cables that no one is ever going to use to plug their phone in, then, I would have been impressed.

---

In short, these cables can be sold on Amazon as phone chargers, and the buyer wouldn't even know it. That's scary.

---

What if Apple sells their iPhones with these types of cables already?

---

0:55 It's not a charger in your hand, it's a wire. the charger is the block you plug into the socket and what you have in your hand is a wire that connects the charger to your cell phone For God's sake, use the right words, it's embarrassing that a grown person can't use the right word for the various things. You wouldn't call an extension cord a charger either, would you?

The look of pure fear in that guy's eyes as Ryan was explaining the cable's potential was priceless.
