Weaponizing the BBC Micro - Bit

Explore how the BBC Micro:Bit, originally designed to teach coding to UK students, can be transformed into a powerful wireless attack tool in this 48-minute conference talk from BruCON Security Conference. Discover the process of hacking the Micro:Bit firmware to create a portable device capable of sniffing keystrokes from wireless keyboards and hijacking quadcopters mid-flight. Learn about the development of open-source tools for security researchers to interact with proprietary 2.4GHz protocols, including an improved sniffer inspired by mousejack tools. Gain insights into the potential of the Micro:Bit as a platform for creating portable RF attack tools and simplifying research on 2.4GHz protocols.
