Instructed by: Joseph Long

Level of Difficulty: Intermediate

Abstract:

Hands-on exploration of embedded hardware tools implementing multiple wireless communication standards. Experiment with Wi-Fi wireless local area network (WLAN) technology and Bluetooth personal area network (PAN) technology. Stream audio to and from a variety of endpoints. Configure a Nordic nRF52 Bluetooth sniffer to capture and analyze wireless communications using Wireshark. Examine the design and manufacture of an exclusive dual-core embedded hardware target supporting both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Leverage the target to experiment with microcontroller-based wireless hardware hacking. Practice both sinking and sourcing Bluetooth Audio streams into and out of the hardware target. Capture Wi-Fi packets using onto the hardware target for transfer to Wireshark for analysis. Perform example security exploits and countermeasures using embedded wireless hardware tools.

PLEASE NOTE: This workshop requires purchasing the necessary hardware tools. A link to complete the purchase the kit will be provided upon registration for the workshop. The purchased kits will be distributed during the workshop. Kit is $60 (USD) and is REQUIRED.

Pre-Requisites:

Participants should have a basic familiarity with computer networks and packet-based communications. Exposure to simple software tools and introductory knowledge of programming (in C and/or Python) would be very helpful, but not strictly necessary.

Check your confirmation email for the link to purchase the REQUIRED hardware kit.
