The USB is specified to be an industry-standard
extension to the PC architecture, in my Work, I will
check the security of USB standards, I
will build a second test-platform to test and analyze
the USB interface and the USB communication, in the
end I will estimate the complexity of extending the
two platforms in one test-platform. Sensor and actor
for USB interface will be added so that the actor
operates on the USB device which is a black-box. The
sensor intercepts the communication between the actor
and the device. The communication will be monitored
via the host in the Middle, so here the sensor and
the actor doesn t satisfy the semantic of sensors
like pressure or temperature sensor which are well
known in the industry, but this scene is simply a
construction of software and hardware known in
cryptography by Man In The Middle attack. This will
yield conclusions for security vulnerability of the
USB- Interface, furthermore case scenarios will be
discussed, amongst other hardware interfaces like
PCI, PCI express and the IEEE 1394.
