Bad USB Simulation

Test your organization's physical security awareness with realistic USB-based attack simulations.

What is a Bad USB Attack?

A Bad USB attack occurs when a seemingly innocent USB device contains malicious code that automatically executes when plugged into a computer. These attacks bypass traditional security measures because the device appears as legitimate hardware.

Real Threat Example

In 2016, security researchers dropped 297 USB drives around a university campus. 48% were picked up and plugged in by unsuspecting users, demonstrating how effective this attack vector can be.

Common Attack Scenarios

  • • USB drives "dropped" in parking lots
  • • Promotional USBs at conferences
  • • Charging cables in public spaces
  • • Gift USBs from unknown sources
