Studying ethical hacking is a great way to learn about technology and cyber security. The HackCard is a new ethical hacking card that can be used for penetration testing. It comes with 3 modes, so it is capable of acting like a BadUSB to deliver payloads. It can also perform evil twin and other approaches in seconds. This card may be tiny but uses a RP2350 and ESP32 for processing and connectivity. With Brute Key and Jam Reader functions, it can try default keys on tags to find access and simulate a misbehaving tag that sends malformed responses.
This card has two tactile switches that you can map to launch scripts, mute your mic, and perform other tasks. Thanks to NFC, you can use this with any device without having to install any fancy apps. A local web interface is available through the device that lets you review your data and configure settings. It also has a fully programmable RGB and buzzer. This gadget can be set up to run actions automatically based on wireless events. It provides access to a command line interface for more advanced for pros. This project is getting funded on Kickstarter.
