Red Team Tool USB-Based Attack Using Raspberry Pi P4wnP1 A.L.O.A

Abstract

This article presents the development of the A.L.O.A P4wnP1 USB-based Red Team tool using a Raspberry Pi Zero. The tool uses Human Interface Device (HID) attack techniques to simulate real-world cybersecurity threats. By integrating the P4wnP1 A.L.O.A framework and creating attack scripts with Ducky Script, it provides a simple and effective way to test vulnerabilities. Using social engineering, the tool is deftly disguised as a working PC speaker in order to remain undetected while carrying out attacks. Tests demonstrated that the tool successfully performed tasks such as disabling Microsoft Defender, downloading malware, and initiating ransomware attacks, all while remaining undetected. This project offers valuable insights into USB-based attacks. Future enhancements can focus on improving its stealth capabilities and adding more functions. By bridging the gap between cybersecurity research and useful technologies, the A.L.O.A P4wnP1 assists companies in fortifying their defenses against contemporary cyberthreats.
