How do you avoid Juice Jacking & Data Thief?
So have you ever wondered what’s the best practice for public power outlets?
Summary
"Juice jacking is not possible if a device is charged via the AC adapter shipped with the device, a battery backup device, or by utilizing a USB cable with only power wires and no data wires present. "
"Attackers can pass malware to a connected device (your phone) by installing modified USB sockets into an airport's charging station.
Connect a USB data blocker to ensure that the USB cable only charges your device and doesn't allow access to your data.
Use a power-only USB cable, which transfers only power from the charge station to your phone, so there's no way malware can reach your device."
