Excellent introduction to these devices. It does not go into a lot of details, but there are good demonstrations showing what can be done, followed by explanations of how they work. It would be nice to go into more detail, but it's not possible with a short (free) course. Fortunately the course includes information about where to get source code and resources for learning to program the devices.

Thank you, David. Bought one of these tools for data recovery. It saved me a lot of time that I didn't even have to do tedious amount of inputs.

From somewhere to somewhere! Two concepts cleared. Your computer is not safe even if its locked. Do not pick up accessories from nowhere. Learn these tricks so that you can be safe! Thanks. Recommended!

It enables anyone to steal data on public Wi-Fi networks. Here’s how it facilitates two sophisticated network attacks and how to protect yourself against them.

A very exciting and informative course meant for those who are just starting or experienced in ethical hacking/cyber security. The hak5 devices are top-notch and I can't wait to get my hands on them. I recommend this course and all the other courses that David created to everyone especially those who are career-swtichers like me. Thank you David, bless you and keep creating awesome content!

Excellent course that talks about two main Hak5 products: USB Rubber Ducky and O.MG cable. Everything very well explained (as David does). I really enjoyed it. Would be nice if in the future it could be included the LAN turtle :)
