Hackers could monitor your BRAINWAVES to steal passwords

Researchers have revealed that brainwaves can be used to steal online passwords. A team at the University of Alabama at Birmingham found brainwave-sensing headsets, also known as EEG or electroencephalograph headsets, put users at risk. They have become commonplace both as medical devices but also as game controllers, ranging in price from $150 to $800. Researchers say EEG devices and future brain computer interfaces can be hacked to monitor what a user is typing. Elon Musk's latest company Neuralink is working to link the human brain with a machine interface by creating micron-sized devices.
