Penetration Testing with Raspberry Pi - Second Edition

By: Michael McPhee, Jason Beltrame

Overview of this book

This book will show you how to utilize the latest credit card sized Raspberry Pi 3 and create a portable, low-cost hacking tool using Kali Linux 2. You’ll begin by installing and tuning Kali Linux 2 on Raspberry Pi 3 and then get started with penetration testing. You will be exposed to various network security scenarios such as wireless security, scanning network packets in order to detect any issues in the network, and capturing sensitive data. You will also learn how to plan and perform various attacks such as man-in-the-middle, password cracking, bypassing SSL encryption, compromising systems using various toolkits, and many more. Finally, you’ll see how to bypass security defenses and avoid detection, turn your Pi 3 into a honeypot, and develop a command and control system to manage a remotely-placed Raspberry Pi 3. By the end of this book you will be able to turn Raspberry Pi 3 into a hacking arsenal to leverage the most popular open source toolkit, Kali Linux 2.0.

Preface

Understanding the Cyber or Intrusion Kill Chain


Kill Chains have been used for many years in the defense industry to describe the phases of an activity and help outline what each phases does, how we enter those phases, and how we exit them. Kill Chains are an adapted, action-focused version of the value chain analysis that Michael Porter popularized in the 1980s. What these types of analysis, or kill chains, are good at is helping us understand the process of getting our task, penetrating a target network/system in this case, done. Lockheed Martin is credited with having crafted their concept of a Cyber Kill Chain to the intrusion game, with the paper Intelligence-Driven Computer Network Defense Informed by Analysis of Adversary Campaigns and Intrusion Kill Chains.
