Patent number: 10108519Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for detecting, by a universal serial bus (USB) drive operatively coupled with a computing device, power from the computing device, and determining, by the USB drive, that drivers associated with the USB drive have been installed on the computing device. The systems and methods may determine that drivers associated with the USB drive have been installed by sending, to the computing device, a digital signal indicating a predetermined keystroke until the USB drive receives a response from the computing device, and receiving, from the computing device, a feedback response to the digital signal indicating the predetermined keystroke has been received. The systems and methods further executing, by the USB drive, a macro to download a payload to the computing device from a server computer, causing by the USB drive, the payload to execute on the computing device, and causing, by the USB drive, the downloaded payload to be deleted from the computing device.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2016Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Viewpost IP Holdings, LLCInventors: Christopher Pierson, Andrew McCormack
