A new class of hackers can steal personal data by analyzing low power electronic signals emitted by devices, even when offline. Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology discovered that these side channel emissions can be detected from several feet away. The team is working on making these signals weaker to prevent data theft. They have developed a metric to measure leak strength and are identifying the most vulnerable processes. The goal is to help engineers find solutions to this problem.
