By paying attention to this gadget, it is possible to prevent the theft of a car or the burglary of a accommodation.
After a car flight or a break -in, it is not uncommon to hear the victims say that they ignore how thieves proceeded. And for good reason: some leave no trace. But these criminals are far from improvising. Crottal tools, signal jammers, false electronic keys or simple meticulous tracking, they generally exploit each flaw possible to go unnoticed. Among their tools, one in particular is talked about because it is relatively recent. It is an orange color gadget, easy to spot in the street if you pay attention to details.
Originally, this device was made to test the safety of electronic systems. Clearly, it works as a hacking tool, allowing you to analyze and interact with various devices, including badges, remote controls or connected objects. Cybersecurity experts use it, but its use also attracts ill -intentioned people. This is the “Flipper Zero” tool, also called the “Tamagotchi du Hacker”, sold around 200 euros on online sites.
It looks like a small compact, white and orange case, with buttons, USB ports and SD card, which can easily hold in one hand. Some hackers and thieves use it to capture and copy electronic devices. This allows them, among other things, to open a car, a portal or the door of a building, without forcing the lock. In principle, no recent electrical closure door could withstand it. Tesla cars would also be particularly vulnerable in the face of this type of gadget.
In any case, if a suspicious person handles this type of device near you or next to vehicles, it is best to discreetly alert the police or the gendarmerie. Better to warn than to see his car disappear or his house visited!
