USB Transparency Kit - Interrogate Your Devices & Expose USB Lies

Every USB device tells your computer a story: who made it, what it is, what it wants to do. But USB devices can lie. A flash drive might secretly be a keyboard. A charging cable could include a hidden network adapter. A "trusted" peripheral might report a fake manufacturer ID. The USB Transparency Kit gives you the tools to see through the deception.
