How to check 2nd hand hardware does not contain malware?
by linuxuser371038 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MRMM)
I do like the idea of picking up bargains 2nd hand and bringing them back to life.
I don't like the idea that none store bought hardware is more likely to be compromised.
Are there ways to check to a reasonable level of confidence that devices you buy are clean?
If so how?
Also must it be done on an airgapped, none internet connected, machine or would booting into a vm/livecd suffice?
