I am curious what others use to detect a malicious USB cable or if there is any software to detect malicious cables.
An example of a malicious cables are the ones produced by O.MG that appear like a regular USB cable but has keyloggers and wifi chips in them to transmit data.
O.MG has a detector tool, but I am curious what others are using for detection or analysis?

According to Murray Associates ( https://counterespionage.com/malicious-usb-cable-detector-instructions/ ) am reading that using a USB Power meter with a current reading in the range of 0.2 amps and 0.05 amps is considered malicious.
Is anyone aware of someone documenting their tests on this?
Perhaps a whitepaper?
