Hacked Existence: Building the Epona Gachi - A Modern Twist on the Tamagotchi

In this tutorial, we will Delve into the world of the POE Noguchi, a modern-day take on the Tamagotchi of the 90s. However, this Tamagotchi comes with a cybersecurity twist. We'll explore how the POE Noguchi works, its functionalities, and how to build your own. So, let's dive in and discover the world of the Epona Gachi!

What is the POE Noguchi?

The POE Noguchi is a cybernetic pet device that draws inspiration from the beloved Tamagotchi toys from the 90s. However, instead of simply taking care of a virtual pet, the POE Noguchi adds a cybersecurity element to the mix. This innovative device derives its happiness from its ability to sniff WPA and WPA2 handshakes, making it a unique and intriguing gadget for tech enthusiasts.

How does the POE Noguchi work?

1. Sniffing WPA and WPA2 handshakes: The POE Noguchi utilizes the power of better cap to perform a site survey, identifying all the wireless networks and the clients connected to them within range. Using artificial intelligence methodologies, such as AdVantage actor critic (A2C), it determines which clients to attack and in what order. One of its primary methods involves deauthenticating the client and capturing the handshake when the client automatically reconnects.

2. Attacking and deauthenticating clients: The POE Noguchi employs various attack techniques to target and deauthenticate clients connected to vulnerable networks. By leveraging its AI-driven algorithms, it strategically selects its targets for maximum efficiency and effectiveness.

Saving handshakes for cracking

It's important to note that the POE Noguchi itself doesn't crack passwords. Instead, it captures and saves the Wi-Fi handshakes on its micro SD card. These captured handshakes can then be transferred to a more powerful cracking rig for analysis using tools like hashcat. With dictionary or brute force attacks, users can decipher the Wi-Fi password from the captured handshake.

Social functionality of the POE Noguchi

The POE Noguchi isn't just a standalone device; it thrives in a social environment. When two POE Noguchi devices are brought together, they engage in communication and collaborate to divide and conquer Wi-Fi channels. This unique strategy allows them to pwn double the networks in the same amount of time. Users can also enable GRID and reporting functionality, where the POE Noguchi sends its statistics to an online scoreboard, enhancing the community aspect of the device.

Battery life and power options

Battery life is a crucial factor to consider when using a portable device like the POE Noguchi. While the included giant battery lasted around five and a half hours, it's essential to note that this can vary depending on network availability and previous network pwnage. Additionally, users have the flexibility to choose from various power options, including different battery sizes and external power sources.

Modular design and customization

One of the standout features of the POE Noguchi is its highly modular design. Users can customize and tweak various aspects of the device according to their preferences and skill levels. With a range of hardware components available, such as different screens and antennas, the POE Noguchi can be as simple or advanced as desired. Moreover, the diverse selection of 3D printed cases provides even more customization options.

Building your own POE Noguchi

Building your own POE Noguchi is an exciting and rewarding project. Let's go through the step-by-step process of assembling this cybernetic pet:

1. Bill of Materials: Gather the necessary hardware components, which include the Raspberry Pi Zero W, ePaper display, optional external antenna socket, real-time clock, microSD card, and battery.

2. Raspberry Pi setup: Set up the Raspberry Pi Zero W by soldering header pins and connecting the ePaper display. Ensure the correct GPIO configuration to establish the necessary connections.

3. Installing the real-time clock: Configure the Raspberry Pi to support the real-time clock and make the necessary connections. Modify the configuration file to enable the real-time clock functionality.

4. Flashing the POE Noguchi image: Download the latest POE Noguchi release and use a tool like Apple Pi Baker to write the image to the microSD card.

5. Configuring the POE Noguchi: Create a configuration file on the microSD card to set up the device according to your preferences. Customize settings such as device name, whitelist, and display options.

6. Putting it all together in a 3D printed case: Select a 3D printed case that suits your style and print it out. Assemble the components, ensuring proper placement of the real-time clock and battery.

7. Powering on and setting up the POE Noguchi: Power on the device, establish the necessary network connections, and configure the real-time clock using the provided instructions. Use the interface to personalize your POE Noguchi further.

Using the POE Noguchi

Once You have set up your POE Noguchi, you can unleash its power and start sniffing Wi-Fi networks. Access the POE Noguchi interface through the data port using SSH or the web interface. Configure the real-time clock, enabling accurate timestamps for captured handshakes. Utilize the power of the Ponagachi to enhance your cybersecurity explorations and engage in a truly unique hacking experience.

Conclusion

The POE Noguchi offers an exciting step into the world of cybersecurity and hacking. With its modern twist on the classic Tamagotchi, this cybernetic pet device allows users to explore the intricacies of Wi-Fi networks while providing customization options and a social element. Building your own POE Noguchi opens up endless possibilities for hacking and network exploration. So, get ready to immerse yourself in the world of the Epona Gachi, and let your hacking adventures begin!

FAQ

Q: Can the POE Noguchi crack Wi-Fi passwords? A: No, the POE Noguchi captures and saves WPA and WPA2 handshakes but does not perform the password cracking. It saves the captured handshakes for further analysis on a dedicated cracking rig using tools like hashcat.

Q: How long does the battery last on the POE Noguchi? A: The battery life of the POE Noguchi can vary depending on network availability and previous network pwnage. On average, the included giant battery lasts around five and a half hours.

Q: Can I customize the POE Noguchi to my preferences? A: Yes, the POE Noguchi is highly customizable. Users can choose from various hardware components such as screens, antennas, and battery sizes.
