A fascinating security exposure where an investigator spread USB drives with cracking code around a credit union and then got great results from the employee - textbook social engineering.

It’s tough - finding a freebie USB drive myself, I’d probably try to find a way to wipe it and keep it… but I don’t know how to keep it isolated long enough to torch it.  No firewall available on USB…

Update: Bruce Schneier doesn’t like this ‘feature’ either…
