Items like USB are used worldwide to connect a computer to other devices. However, it is being reported that this is the most unsafe use of USB.

It has been found in a study that researchers from the University of Adelaide University have inspected 50 different computer and external USB hubs. In this observation, I realized that 90 percent of the information was leaked and it came in the external USB device.

Associate Youth Yerom of the study said that "USB devices related to the device include keyboards, card swiper and fingerprint readers and they always send sensitive information to the computer.

That is keystrokes showing password or other information can easily be stolen. Yerum has said that he needs to design the USB connection more securely.
