"Protect Your Phone from Juice Jacking with USB Condoms"

Hackers are using a new cyber-theft tactic called "juice jacking" by hiding skimming devices inside public USB ports and charging cables. The malware gains access to your device as soon as you plug it in and can lock you out or export personal data and passwords. To avoid getting hacked via charging stations, consumers are advised to avoid using public USB charging stations, bring their own chargers and cables, carry a portable charger or external battery, and consider purchasing a charging-only cable from a trusted supplier.
