✅I’m excited to share my latest cybersecurity project—USB HID Attack Device with Digispark (ATTiny85) — research & defense In this project, I used a Digispark ATTiny85 microcontroller to simulate how USB-based attacks can automate certain system-level actions when plugged into a computer. The goal of this project was purely educational — to understand how attackers can exploit hardware devices to gain unauthorized access, and more importantly, how we can detect and defend against such attacks. I designed a proof-of-concept (PoC) that demonstrates how such devices could trigger scripted actions automatically. ✅Disclaimer: This project is for educational and ethical research purposes only. The goal is to raise awareness about USB-based attack vectors and improve defense strategies.
