Last summer World Net Daily published an article on
a hacker group called "Hong Kong Blondes" in which
the hackers claimed that compromising electromagnetic
emanations from computer equipment could be acquired
up by cellular modems.
Can cellular modems be used for this purpose? If so,
what is involved in setting them up for it?
Here's the article excerpt:
As time progressed, members of the Hong
Kong Blondes leadership told WorldNetDaily
they began actually to install codes within the
PLA computer mainframes. By using cellular
modems, they were able to monitor the
electromagnetic signals emitted by PLA
computers by remote means. The Blondes even
planted transmitters within the offices of the
Chinese government, People's Liberation Army
and foreign corporate headquarters in order to
monitor their activities and infiltrate their
computer networks.
