Arduino MKR1000 as a HID, for performing HID penetration testing over WiFi networks. Story Today I have an Arduino MKR1000 which is a board with built-in wifi chipset specially designed for IOT projects. Recently I came to know that, this little board can act as a Human Interface Device such as a keyboard or a mouse. So I thought of using it for some HID attacks over WiFi. In this video, I will show you a s ...

There are but a few things better than (succesfully) programming and using your Arduino. Surely one of those things is using your ESP8266 as an Arduino with WiFi!
