This article reviews several dual-use security tools—the USB Rubber Ducky, Bash Bunny, Flipper Zero, and O.MG cables—detailing how features like HID injection, RFID/NFC cloning, wireless/IR control, keylogging, and onboard Wi‑Fi can enable rapid unauthorized actions and data theft if misused. While not citing confirmed real-world attacks, it highlights organizational risks from innocuous-looking peripherals and recommends controls such as strict device policies, physical security, user awareness training, disabling autorun/auto‑play, security solutions with device control, and use of USB data blockers.
