A Wireless Journeyman’s Experience in Practical SIGINT - Russell Handorf

This talk will be a demonstration of my experiences, joys, and frustrations in building a small home/office (SOHO) signals intelligence (SIGINT) platform. Starting as a custom system and solution called SoHoSIGINT, its design, architecture, and results will be briefly discussed but segways to a narrative and instruction about contributing to FOSS software. The result is the experience of contributing code to Kismet which enhanced the different kinds of wireless devices that are captured and logged in this platform. The finale is in the demonstration of creating new hardware to capture signals and integrating it into kismet. If I could do it, you can do it, and I’m going to show you how.

Dr. Russell Handorf (@dntlookbehindu) currently is a principal threat intelligence hacker for WhiteOps where he spends his time making criminals curse his very existence. He is also a recovering fed after ten years of service defending the country in a variety of matters. He’s done a lot of other odd things here and there, but that isn’t important. Let’s just have a conversation, but you’ll have to endure my dad jokes.
