Wi-Fi Deauthing Sandals #WearableWednesday

Lovin’ this wearable from Becky Button and SexyCyborg on Hackster.io!

Project

This project took its inspiration from Limor Fried’s “Wave Bubble“, a portable RF jammer. This project is based on the popular ESP8266 WiFI deauth project on GitHub, and the Palmiga Multi Ribbon Shoe on Thingiverse. We have modified the shoe to hold a Feather Huzzah and a battery pack.

As devices become more and more connected, the need for understanding security is becoming more vital.

In older Wi-Fi 802.11 protocols, there is a known vulnerability that allows you to perform a deauthentication attack. You can learn more about it here.
