STM32 boards, soldering, decapping chips, RTOS development, lasers, multiple flippers and for what you ask? So I can be alerted about a device I already know is there. The Flipper Zero attracted the attention of news outlets and hackers alike as people have used it to gain access to restricted resources. Is the Flipper Zero that powerful that it needs to be banned? This is a journey of recursion and not taking "no" for an answer. Kailtyn Hendelman joins the PSW crew to discuss the Flipper Zero and using it to hack all the things. In the Security News: SSDs use AI/ML to prevent ransomware (And more buzzword bingo), zombie servers that just won't die, spectral chickens, side-channel attacks, malware-free cyberattacks!, your secret key should be a secret, hacking smart TVs with IR, getting papercuts, people still have AIX, ghosttokens, build back better SBOMs, Salsa for your software, Intel let Google hack things, and they found vulnerabilities, and flase positives on your drug test, & more!
