“Security Testing with Raspberry Pi” – New Book!

My latest Raspberry Pi book, “Security Testing with Raspberry Pi” is out! The latest edition of my popular Security Testing with the versatile Raspberry Pi is out!†

The credit card sized Raspberry Pi has been a hit with makers for years, it is amazing how many different ways you can use these devices. What many don’t know is that they are also a great tool for use in the security field.

The RPi can run many of the popular Ethical Hacking tools and operating systems. The small size and portability of the Pi makes it a perfect tool for Red Teams and Pentesters.

For example, the RPi makes for great pentesting “Drop Boxes”, small scanning remote access tools left behind on a client’s website during a test. But that is just one use, thanks to P4wnP1, the Pi can also be used as a very powerful and live customizable HiD attack tool. They can even be used as surveillance cameras.

In my book, I cover how to install and use many of the top security tools on the Raspberry Pi.

How to install Kali Linux on a RPi, installing security tools on PiOS, how to use the Pentesters Framework – a collection of pentest tools, even how to setup your Pi to act like a security camera, and much, much more!

Like my previous books, the first thing covered is setting up a test lab with vulnerable targets. You will see how to use the RPi to scan test systems for vulnerabilities. This enables you to learn ethical hacking skills without breaking the bank.

This book basically takes off where “Basic Security Testing with Kali Linux” ends and shows you how to use a Pi as a functional security tool. Though not a beginner, “How to use a Pi” book, I use step-by-step tutorials for those new to ethical hacking and the Raspberry Pi.

Topics Include:

• Creating a Security Testing Lab
• Using Ethical Hacking tools in Raspberry Pi OS
• Using Kali Linux on a Raspberry Pi
• Using Raspberry Pi for Command & Control (C2)
• Scanning and Web App Security Testing with a Pi
• Using RPi as a USB HiD attack device
• Using cameras on a RPi to create physical security devices
• And much, much more!

Completely updated and revised. Now includes the Pi 400, Pi 0W2, and CM4! The Pi 4 tutorials also work with the new Pi 5!
