Alligator 2018

BLE hacking workshop

Kraków

Alligatorcon

In this workshop you will get familiar with the basics of BLE security. We will work on a dedicated, readily available BLE hardware nRF devkit device. In a minutes you will turn into embedded developer and learn how to program your own BLE device yourself, using a free web interface and ready templates. Next, from attacker’s perspective, we will cover among others: sniffing, spoofing, MITM, replay and relay. Having enough time, we will play with a collection of vulneraBLE smart locks, sex toys and other devices. The takeaway hardware included will allow you to experiment and repeat the exercises later at home.

The hardware pack includes:

  • nRF BLE devkit that can be flashed as a BLE RF sniffer, or a BLE device to attack
  • ST-Link debugger for flashing the devkit firmware
  • 2xBLE USB dongles

Please bring:

  • contemporary laptop that can run Kali Linux in VM (like 4 GB RAM, 20G disk space), with VM software of your choice installed (virtualbox or vmware), and at least 2 USB ports available
  • smartphone with BLE support, preferably Android (at least 4.3), or iPhone (at least 4s)
  • if you have Raspberry Pi 3 or BBC micro:bit, you can bring it too
  • you can also bring your own BLE devices
