nullcon Goa 2017 - Drone Hijacking And Other IoT Hacking With GNU Radio And SDR by Arthur Garipov

This talk explores the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, questioning whether their safety relies on perceived invisibility. The speaker demonstrates how to utilize Software-defined Radio (SDR) and GNU Radio to detect modern wireless devices that operate on similar protocols without traffic encryption. Through practical examples, including a Mousejack attack on wireless dongles and the hijacking of drones, the presentation illustrates the ease of intercepting and manipulating these devices with a simple Python script. Artur, a Senior Specialist in the Network Application Security Team at Positive Technologies, shares insights from his extensive research on wireless technologies and IoT security.
