  Windows PCs open to FireWire hack
Time: 15:56 EST/20:56 GMT | News Source: PC Advisor | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Attackers can quickly compromise Windows PCs via a FireWire port, according to a security researcher who has published a software tool to enable the hack.

The tool, which can be used only by attackers with physical access to a system, comes shortly after the publication of research on gaining access to encrypted hard drives via physical access to memory.
