The Reflection

Brooks Crossing Innovation Lab

The Experience

At Brooks Crossing Innovation Lab I had the opportunity to enhance my public speaking  & teaching skills, class design, 3D design, troubleshooting and critical thinking ability. These soft and hard skills are invaluable to the interdisciplinary mindset and in my opinion are required skills for the successful cybersecurity professional today.

Cybersecurity Ethics

This course examines ethical issues relevant to cybersecurity professionals, including privacy, professional code of conduct, practical conflicts between engineering ethics & business practices, individual & corporate social responsibility, ethical hacking, information warfare, and Cyberwarfare. Students gain a broad understanding of central issues in Cyberethics and the ways that fundamental ethical theories relate to these core issues.

Hacking the Spectrum

This work in progress utilizes a HackRF One, nRF52840 Bluetooth adaptor which allows for the formation of packets. The project also utilizes the Python controlled CoDrone. The goal of this project is to reveal the vulnerabilities in the Data layer of the Bluetooth stack. This is accomplished by capturing the transmission of the RF signals, demodulating the signal and forming a packet to be sent using the Bluetooth adapter. While also using an open source software called Mirage. Essentially, this creates a Man in the Middle attack with out the user being aware.
