π― What You'll Learn
- Survey Bluetooth attack surface
- Understand side-channel/cryptanalysis basics
- Spot common embedded weaknesses
- Plan a hardware assessment
Overview
Security doesnβt stop at software. This lab introduces hardware attack concepts: Bluetooth weaknesses, side-channel intuition and common embedded-device exposures.
Core Topics
- Bluetooth risks
- Side-channel concepts
- Embedded exposure
- Assessment planning
Prerequisites
A working KaliRange lab environment and comfort with the Linux command line.
Recommended Workflow
- Spin up the target in your KaliRange lab environment and confirm connectivity.
- Enumerate the target thoroughly before touching any exploit β information first.
- Reproduce each technique by hand so you understand why it works, not just the command.
- Capture evidence (commands, output, screenshots) as you go.
- Write a short note on how a defender would detect or prevent what you just did.
Only ever run these techniques against systems you own or have explicit written permission to test. Practise inside your own KaliRange lab.
Your Goal
Work through every task in your own lab, document your findings as you would on a real engagement, then note the defensive takeaways.
