WiFi hacking without opening your laptop? @DarrenKitchen from @hak5 joins me to talk about the WiFi Pineapple Pager and what this little Linux device can actually do.
Darren shares the story behind the Pager, explains its support for 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz WiFi, and walks us through features including wireless reconnaissance, eventtriggered alerts, and community-created payloads. We also discuss how Bash and DuckyScript helpers let users build their own functionality, and how Pager Portal makes it possible to download payloads directly onto the device.
How does it compare with the WiFi Pineapple Mark VII and Enterprise? We look at the different use cases, from portable testing to remotely auditing a client’s wireless network.
And yes, someone has already made it run Doom.
This is an interview and feature overview with the creator, covering the ideas, technology, and community behind the WiFi Pineapple Pager.
