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

Chapter 3.  Planning the Attack

In this chapter, we start to dive into the methodology of the attack. We will focus on adapting the Cyber Kill Chain model, which was originally adapted by Lockheed Martin. The Kill Chain model is a great model to look at for developing a sold penetration testing plan because it is intrusion-centric.

We will walk through the multiple phases of the Cyber Kill Chain to get a better understanding of the model and how it relates to our attack thought process, and develop our own version of the model, called the Penetration test Kill Chain model. Kali installs a huge set of tools for our use, so we will map those tools to the Penetration test Kill Chain model to help get a better understanding of which tools to use where. Since there is a plethora of tools available, we will introduce the common tools for both wired and wireless that we'll be discussing through the rest of the book, as well as some non-standard tools that we will add to our arsenal. Finally, we...
