Smartwatch gadget has become increasingly attract attention. Either because of his ability, a cool design or due to appear contemporary trends. The sophistication of smart watches that have been presented by several well-known manufacturers such as Apple, Asus, Samsung, Sony, and others.

Unfortunately, the high price is still a major constraint. Just imagine, the average smartwatch branded brands priced above 2 million. In fact, the amount of money it can also get a smartphone with a qualified specification. But for you who is not wearing a smartwatch, you are one lucky loh. How come?

Be careful, SmartWatch and Tracking Centre could leak ATM PIN or E-banking To Hackers
Hackers Can Steal PIN Through Smartwatch

Reporting from Tech Viral, a recent study from Binghamton University, based in New York found that hackers could easily exploit smartwatch or a fitness tracker and other wearable devices. To steal ATM PIN or password is your account related to the internet and mobile banking.

According to the researchers a number of sophisticated sensors were embedded in wearable devices can be used to track hand movements accurately, even the smallest movements like typing on a keyboard or keypad. To test their hypothesis, the research group used a computer algorithm to prove that they can hack the password of the key-based input system finger with a success rate of 80% on the first try and the accuracy of more than 90% after three tries.

Sophisticated sensors on Smartwatch So Petaka

During the study, the team tested 20 adults who use a variety of different wearable devices for 11 months. They did 5,000 tests on three key-based security systems, including ATM. During that period they managed to record information from subtle hand movements to the millimeter level thanks to the accelerometer sensor, gyroscope, and magnetometer contained in wearable devices.

Furthermore, a study has revealed hackers can pull information from smartwatch through two scenarios that internal attacks and sniffing. In the first scenario, a hacker can access the device via malware sensor, which sends back data when the victim entered the PIN or password. Meanwhile, sniffing attacks carried out by means of a Bluetooth connection block which connects to a smartphone smartwatch.

Threats It Real

Yan Wang, assistant professor of computer science at the University of Binghamton said that the threat was real. The attack was spelled "sophisticated", which means they will require high level of technical knowledge to carry out successful attacks.

The researchers hope that the findings could be used to improve security. They suggested to the producers wearable device makers, so that light movement can not be tracked, yet still useful for tracking fitness activity. Seeing the results of the above studies, you create smartwatch users should be more careful. Maybe from now on, you have to use your bare hands or hands-free smartwatch when going to type a password.
