A team of researchers from British universities has trained a deep learning model that can steal data from keyboard keystrokes recorded using a microphone with an accuracy of 95%.

    Were you previously able to identify what someone typed with 96% precision based entirely on the sound of their keyboard? Because I would wager most people cannot

      My point is, this is not a new thing: They have previously been able to effectively keylog based on sound. What makes this different?

        This one is different from other similar attacks because it works against extremely quiet keyboards
