A USB drive left in the library parking lot is plugged into a catalog PC. What is the attack vector?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Someone left candy in the parking lot and a catalog PC ate it. A planted USB is removable-media baiting—physical social engineering—not a website, VPN spray, or API injection. The stick is the vector.
Full Explanation
Baiting with abandoned removable media is a physical social-engineering vector that introduces code when a civic workstation mounts the device. Watering-hole, VPN brute-force, and SQL injection use different delivery paths and telemetry. The catalog PC inserting a dropped USB is the introduction event to name.
