====About====
Following the success of the [[http://hak5.org/usb-switchblade|USB Switchblade]], the attack platform that was super effective against local Windows targets, the [[http://www.hak5.org|Hak5]] community with the help of [[http://www.appliedsec.com/|Applied Security]] has developed a new kind of attack -- this time cross platform (Windows, Mac, Linux) -- which achieves deadly results by posing as an ubiquitous keyboard.
The USB Rubber Ducky isn't your ordinary [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_device|HID (Human Interface Device)]].
