This USB Adapter Can Hack Your Network

This looks like a normal USB-C Ethernet adapter and hub, but inside is a Linux computer built for penetration testing.

@DarrenKitchen from @hak5 shows me the new LAN Turtle Hub, which can provide remote access, sniff network traffic, intercept USB devices and even exfiltrate files, all while continuing to work like a normal Ethernet adapter.

The scary part? The user may have no idea anything is happening.

Use tools like this only on systems you own or have explicit permission to test.
