The original secure cryptoprocessor was designed for copy protection of personal computer software (see US Patent 4,168,396, Sept 18, 1979) [5] to provide more security than dongles could then provide. See also bus encryption. Hardware cloning, where the dongle is emulated by a device driver, is also a threat to traditional dongles.
WinUSB is a generic USB driver provided by Microsoft, for their operating systems starting with Windows Vista but which is also available for Windows XP. It is aimed at simple devices that are accessed by only one application at a time (for example instruments like weather stations, devices that only need a diagnostic connection or for firmware upgrades).
Ethernet over USB is the use of a USB link as a part of an Ethernet network, resulting in an Ethernet connection over USB (instead of e.g. PCI or PCIe).. USB over Ethernet (also called USB over Network or USB over IP) is a system to share USB-based devices over Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or the Internet, allowing access to devices over a network.
A Chromecast stick plugged into the HDMI port of a TV. The cable attached to the other end is the USB power supply. In the mid-to-late 2010s, the dongle form factor was extended to digital media players with a small, stick-like form factor—such as Chromecast and Fire TV Stick—that are designed to plug directly into an HDMI port on a television or AV receiver (powered via Micro USB ...
Disk cloning is the process of duplicating all data on a digital storage drive, such as a hard disk or solid state drive, using hardware or software techniques. [1] Unlike file copying, disk cloning also duplicates the filesystems, partitions, drive meta data and slack space on the drive. [2]
[3] [10] It integrates several other open-source programs to provide cloning and imaging capabilities. Clonezilla works by copying used blocks on the storage device (i.e. SATA SSD, HDD or NVMe SSD). [4] It is intended to support a bare-metal deployment of an operating system by booting from a preinstalled live environment.
Common devices such as keyboards and mice send reports that are compliant with standards set by the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF). [8] When a vendor makes a custom USB HID class device, the reports formed by the device need to match the report description given during enumeration and the driver installed on the host system.
A write-locked SD card (known as a Live SD, the solid-state counterpart to a live CD) in a USB flash card reader adapter is an effective way to avoid any duty cycles on the flash medium from writes and circumvent this problem. The SD card as a WORM device has an essentially unlimited life.
