In my spare time I enjoy testing systems for various vulnerabilities, specifically on the website www.hackthebox.eu, where they have hundreds of vulnerable machines that you can access and ethically test. The initial enumeration process of port scanning, and checking software/protocol versions for known CVEs can be time consuming so I created a simple script that can automate that process.
- PGPwifi
This project focuses on defeating evil twin wifi networks. It works by generating an RSA encryption key that asks all access points to decrypt a secret string. If a system on the network either fails to decrypt or shows a false result, the system in question is then automatically DDoS’ed to prevent data loss. The project is currently unfinished but when complete will come with a config file for the user that will include a white list, black list, and how often to prompt local devices to decrypt the challenge phrase.
