CIA it can hack any kind of computer, even if it is not connected to the Internet, the disclosure being made during the past weekend regarding the largest intelligence agency on the planet. According to those who disclosed the CIA's modus operandi, the spy agency uses USB sticks to infiltrate computers that are not connected to the Internet.
We are talking here about computers that contain extremely important data and that is why they were not connected to the Internet, the CIA still managing to infiltrate them without problems. Wikileaks is the source of these revelations about CIA tactics to break into computers that are not connected to the Internet, a software called Drifting Deadline being used by American spies.
After infecting that computer using the CIA software, any USB stick connected to it was automatically infected as well. When that USB stick was connected to other computers, the CIA's software propagated in them, and thus infected entire computer networks that contain extremely important data, which should not reach the Internet, or the attention of the at the CIA.
CIA can hack computers without internet
Those from Microsoft analyzed the published documents and claim that the CIA's exploits would not be capable of exploiting any current version of Windows. Of course, this does not reassure anyone, because Microsoft can protect extremely important customers and would not want to publicly confirm the fact that the CIA can exploit its operating systems without problems.
The CIA software was so powerful that it could infect computers even if the files on the infected USB sticks were not actually open. To do this, he used Windows vulnerabilities, which have been fixed by Microsoft in the meantime, the CIA probably discovering other methods to exploit the computers from which they want to extract data.
"Documents published Thursday purport to show how the Central Intelligence Agency has used USB drives to infiltrate computers so sensitive they are severed from the Internet to prevent them from being infected. Our investigation confirmed that customers on supported versions of Windows are not affected. For the best defense against modern security threats, we recommend Windows 10, which is updated automatically by default."
Paradoxically, those from Microsfot recommend their clients to install Windows 10 to be protected against the CIA, although the source code was published the other day on the Internet. Having said that, the Americans from the CIA are capable of exploiting any kind of vulnerabilities, some even before they are published, and even computers without internet are their victims.
