Transforming Keystroke Noise to Text: Self-Supervised Acoustic Eavesdropping Attacks on Keyboards

We present a self-supervised acoustic eavesdropping attack that reconstructs typed text solely from keystroke sounds, without requiring labeled data for the target device. The proposed attack enables stealthy eavesdropping in two real-world scenarios-physical spaces public and semi-public and...

Hiding an Ear in Plain Sight: On the Practicality and Implications of Acoustic Eavesdropping with Telecom Fiber Optic Cable

Optical fibers are widely regarded as reliable communication channels due to their resistance to external interference and low signal loss. This paper demonstrates a critical side channel within telecommunication optical fiber that allows for acoustic eavesdropping. By exploiting the sensitivity ...

Skyping And Typing Threatens Privacy

Multitasking while on a work-related Skype call may be good for productivity, but perhaps not so much for privacy. Typing while using Skype or over other Voice over Internet Protocol VoIP services presents an opportunity for an attacker to record the conversation, separate out the emanations from...
