MODERATORS
Anyone watched the video willing to share how?
It's a combination of compromising the hardware gigabit connector on the motherboard, and embedding within that connector a hidden rf device that can exfiltrate data over a wireless signal, effectively jumping across that air gap in place.
It details how the NSA captured hardware shipments in transit and replaced them with the firewalk compromised hardware and then let the shipments proceed to their intended recipient.
It's an 11 minute video, and a decent watch.
