The military has had computers protected against this for decades. I believe they call it Tempest Shielding.

There’s no easy way to determine what process is causing a fluctuation in the CPU.

If you had enough processes running to max out the CPU it would be VERY difficult to sort anything out of the RF mess coming from it. A quiet CPU running a process would be like listening to someone walk across the floor in the apartment upstairs, a maxed out CPU would be like hearing the stomping feet of a dance party overhead...very hard to figure out what foot caused what stomp :-)

An SDR creating a mass of competing RF at the proper frequencies would also create problems for the snooper.

Physical mitigation techniques of electromagnetic radiation include Faraday cages,” the team wrote on its website. “However, inexpensive protection of consumer-grade PCs appears difficult.

This is untrue. Think tinfoil hat.

Tempest, from the 1970s. Just goofle NACSEM 5100.

Nothing new here.

Physical access to your work site or computer can allow a number of attacks. The Evil Maid attack, and the hardware keyboard logger, are the most popular.

Physical security is, therefore, important. Keep your laptop in a safe when it is not in use.

Gotta get me a Tempest machine.

This is sort of hacking is DPA and SPA- differential power analysis and simple power analysis. Cryptography Research Inc. has countermeasures for dealing with this.

Here’s hoping BIbi has already slipped one into theOne’s golf bag and got a hold of the evil one’s blackberry info.

Inexpensive protection of PCs is hard to do? Balderdash!!

Sounds like not using mobile devices or computers using wi-fi is the answer. Hard-wired computers avoid the problem. I do all my secure work (bank and credit card transactions) on my computer physically connected to the net.
