Summary

Hak5's Darren discusses the Wi-Fi Pineapple Pager's wireless testing, event-triggered alerts and customizable payloads, and compares it with the Mark VII and Enterprise models.

Key points

• The Pager supports 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz Wi-Fi and is designed for mobile wireless reconnaissance and testing.
• Its PineAP suite includes karma attacks, beacon flooding, deauthentication and handshake capture.
• Custom Bash payloads can use Ducky Script helpers and run against selected devices or trigger on events such as detected deauthentication floods.

• The Mark VII uses a laptop-accessible web interface, while the Enterprise model supports provisioned remote audits for authorized penetration testing.
• Hak5 says it reviews community-submitted payloads, including for potential device damage because they run with root access.
