Hackers can steal data through LED lights on your computer

A new hack has been discovered that gathers sensitive information from a desktop computer's tiny blinking LED lights. Researchers have successfully extracted a computer's secrets using a data-stealing drone that is capable of recording the Morse code-like patterns of LED indicators. However, the team has also devised a strategy to combat the hack – a security measure that takes sensitive computer systems off the internet.
