Malicious Hardware

Is telephony kit out of scope for what you're thinking off? Beige
boxes, cordless phones or auto dialers/fax could be planted if someone
had physical access to a location. I've not heard of this before but I
would not be surprised if inexpensive dialing hardware was used for
premium rate scams.

I'm thinking of doing a write up on malicious? hardware (maltronics?), and
need ideas for other examples. Here are a few categories I can thing of off
the top of my head:

1. Hardware keyloggers
2. PHUKD Devices
3. Home routers modified as Pivots (I think Paul and Larry have done a lot
of work with this)
4. Cloned routers from China?
5. U3 Thumbdrives with "evil" autorun payloads.

What other items can you think of?

Thanks,
Adrian
