The Machines That Betrayed Their Masters
Your machine (mobile phone, bluetooth device, router etc etc) may betrayed you and can be used to detect your position or even invade your privacy. They are watching you, stay alert.
The devices we carry betray us to those who want to invade our privacy by emitting uniquely identifiable signals. The most common example is the wireless signals emitted by your mobile phone (even whilst tucked safely into your pocket). Such signals may be used to track you, or be used toward more malicious intent.
This talk will discuss the process the author has gone through to build a resilient, modular, reliable, distributed, tracking framework - originally spawned as a PoC tool in 2012 by the name 'Snoopy'. The dog is back, and with more bite - looking beyond just Wi-Fi. Also, he's now airborne via a quadcopter.
