Constructing and Evaluating a Raspberry Pi Penetration Testing/Digital Forensics Reconnaissance ToolLundgren, Marcus, Persson, Johan January 2020 (has links)
Tools that automate processes are always sough after across the entire IT field. This project's aim was to build and evaluate a semi-automated reconnaissance tool based on a Raspberry Pi 4, for use in penetration testing and/or digital forensics. The software is written in Python 3 and utilizes Scapy, PyQt5 and the Aircrack-ng suite along with other pre-existing tools. The device is targeted against wireless networks and its main purpose is to capture what is known as the WPA handshake and thereby crack Wi-Fi passwords. Upon achieving this, the program shall then connect to the cracked network, start packet sniffing and perform a host discovery and scan for open ports. The final product underwent three tests and passed them all, except the step involving port scanning - most likely due to hardware and/or operating system faults, since other devices are able to perform these operations. The main functionalities of this device and software are to: identify and assess nearby network access points, perform deauthentication attacks, capture network traffic (including WPA handshakes), crack Wi-Fi passwords, connect to cracked networks and finally to perform host discovery and port scanning. All of these steps shall be executed automatically after selecting the target networks and pressing the start button. Based on the test results it can be stated that this device is well suited for practical use within cyber security and digital forensics. However, due to the Raspberry Pi's limited computing power users may be advised to outsource the cracking process to a more powerful machine, for the purpose of productivity and time efficiency.
