ODINI Malware Uses CPU Magnetic Emissions to Breach Faraday-Shielded Air-Gapped Computers

ODINI is a sophisticated proof-of-concept malware capable of extracting sensitive information from air-gapped computers protected by Faraday cages. By modulating the targeted computer’s CPU workload to generate low-frequency magnetic fields, this covert channel successfully transmits data through advanced physical isolation barriers. Developed by a team led by Mordechai Guri at Israel’s Ben-Gurion University, the ODINI research highlights severe…
