              A new attack for smartphone users, specifically, Android, called Tap-N-Ghost, a method that has an attacker hijack the device's capacitive touch screen to induce fake taps on the screen.


       Although, this attack method has proven to be effective, its range is limited and requires any home brewed hijacking device to be configured to the phone that its targeting. 

 
      This was recently discovered by researchers at Waseda University, in Tokyo. 

      Original article can be found here.


              That was the news folks, have a good weekend, and stay safe out there.
