Assume my computer is airgapped and has a faraday cage around it. Can the government spooks still get into it?

If the state wants to get to you they will get to you.
Hudson Green
Yes. They can extract data through HDD light blinks. Many other ways around it too.
Liam Price
They can monitor it through electrical noise in your wiring.
Samuel Lewis
>They can extract data through HDD light blinks
Is this true? I know they can get voice from the vibrations in a window pane.

You have to sleep eventually.
Eli Garcia

This is one of the best I've heard

>you sleep
>govt knows because surveillance
>SWAT team/letter agency breaks down your front door and serves you with a search warrant with bogus charges
>you get taken away, your computer is unprotected
>computer gets seized
>government spook clones your drives/puts malware on your pc
>by the time you get out of the bullshit charges, your compupter is fucked six ways from sunday
If you're important enough, the government will always get what it wants. Now pick up that can, citizen.

What is a letter agency

yes.

also, they can send messages from router lights as well!

this one sends data though ultrasonic sound generated by speakers. humans can't hear it but if you have a cell phone near by, it can pick it up and transmit it.
it's incredible how many ways you can find to exfil data from "air-gapped" computers.
thank god I'm not doing security for any big corporations... I'd become paranoid if I did.
Wyatt Morales
They will get it if they really want it.
They have drugs and hypnosis
Sleep deprivation
And more
And they can give you a one way, first class ticket to Gitmo. There they can keep you forever, and no one would know.
Luis Baker
What about water gapping a computer? (sealing up a case and then submerging it, in a standalone tub, thereby providing both water and air gap)
Lucas Jenkins
Real neat, but the computers have to be compromised with the HDD Blinky 9000 malware first for any of that to work
Isaac Peterson
that's easy. there's hundreds of ways to get malware onto one of these computers.
Michael Brown
FFFFFUUUUCK! No speakers, no light, you can even disable or take away the monitor yet it will still send data though
ACOUSTIC SIGNALS GENERATED BY THE FUCKING HARD DRIVE
time to install an SSD.
Christopher Miller
If there are hundreds of ways to get it on an air gapped computer, then surely there's a better way to get some data off than the HDD light and drone method
Lucas Howard
>he doesn't know about the amplified pulses sent through the cables by a SSD
Jaxon Phillips
there are but they require physical contact and how much risk are you willing to take to extract data every day?
you have to infect the air-gapped computer only ONCE and then it will send the data continuously without any further physical contact with the computer. that will minimize the exposure to risk of your asset.
Daniel Parker
Hypnosis is bullshit, drugs aren't.
Torture doesn't work.
All you have to do is supply them with fake information a number of times before they become convinced that nothing you say is credible
