DEF CON 27 WiFi Project

Filed under Projects |

Last year, at DEF CON 26, my wife Sunfire and I debuted our Wifi Project in the Jean Vest, fitting the declared 80s theme of DEF CON 26. It got a lot of attention that year and this year, for DEF CON 27, I decided to keep the project going, but to change the project […]
