Human Hacked

CHAPTER 8I Am the Cyber Threat

I currently have 10 implants (see Appendix A for additional information). Several chipsets have the same base chip, which means some of them provide similar or the same functionality. The differences come in when we look at the protocols and systems accessing those chips. In this chapter, I will go into how I have purposed each chip to assist in a specific attack.

I have broken the offensive use cases into three separate categories:

• Mobile devices
• Physical access
• Magnetic tracing

Mobile Devices

• Use Case: Mobile device/tablet
• Architecture: Android
• Capable Implants:
  • FlexNeXT (Location: Top of right hand)
  • NeXT (Location: Webbing between thumb and pointer finger on right hand)
  • VivoKey: APEX (Location: Inner forearm of left arm)
  • VivoKey: Spark 2 (Location: Between pinky and ring finger knuckles of left hand)

L3pr@cy Attack

Starting with iOS 14 for iPhone, support for reading Near Field Communication (NFC) tags is native for all iPhones from 7 onward.

L3pr@cy was designed to act as a payload delivery system at its core, facilitating the transfer of malicious code or tools to the targeted device. By initiating this process from an implant, it allows the attacker the element of surprise.

Due to the restrictions of installing apps from unknown sources, this attack is currently effective only against Android devices.

This attack is the same one that was described in the introduction of this book, and specific details for the setup are in Chapter ...
