"Change" replicates a cold war tool that was used in covert entry scenarios.
Polaroid pictures were taken prior to a target search. After the search, objects were re-aligned to match the photos.
Security activities at the target site were monitored prior to, during and after the search to discern if the search
was detected. DFA, Digital Frame Analysis, is used here in a similar capacity. A photo is taken before and after
some activity. The two photos are digitally or manually realigned and then 'shuttered', rapidly switched between,
to illustrate even minute differences in the images.
"Onity Lock" contains detailed build instructions to replicate the Onity Hotel Lock defeat demonstrated by Cody
Brocious at Black Hat I attended many years ago. I used this tool as my hotel key for two weeks in Louisiana when
assisting as a Surreptitious Entry Senior Instructor.
"Kensington Lock" documents the use of a field expedient to decode a computer lock combination.
"X10 Jammer" identifies an Alibaba RF Jammer that coincidentally? jams frequencies of both the US and European
frequencies used by the X10 wireless security system.
"Padlock Freeze" evidences the success of a technique used in London several years ago to steal bicycles by using
a can of air to freeze a hardened padlock shackle (can is turned upside down and emptied aimed at the shackle) then breaking
the shackle with a hammer. This technique was tried twice at entry classes. It worked once - and failed once. The difference
was the shackle diameter was larger in the 'failed' trial.
"Combo Breaker" is a Samy Kamkar project to crack Master Combination padlocks. I replicated the project and plan to
optimize the algorithm to "brute force" MOST BRANDS of combination padlocks in under a minute. (But I need help with selecting
a stepper motor with the appropriate torque before revisiting this project.)
"Under the Door Tool" My version of a cheaper, portable, disposable and more forgiving version of the K-22 Under the Door Tool.
With these parts, para cord and a roll of multipurpose, heavy gauge aluminum wire, you can make about a dozen of these tools
for a fraction of the off-the-shelf version.
