Season 8

Hak5 kicks off another season with a plethora of projects. Darren gets his code on with Google's new App Inventor for Android - a spiffy new web based drag-and-drop WYSIWYG development environment. Jason joins us for a little homebrew Boxee machine building and app development, and Shannon's around for a little Ubuntu 10.10 lovin'

Following up from last week Darren is diving deeper into the Android App Inventor while Jason has you building the Boxee equivalent to Hello World -- which is actually quite useful! Then Shannon has just the tool to make those 25 gigs of free Skydrive storage useful.

Darren checks out Ampache, a powerful open source streaming media solution perfect for your Linux home server. Jason answers your Boxee questions and Shannon joins the round table for a discussion on jailbreaking and USB wireless adapters for virtual machines.

Darren checks out screen recording solutions for Linux while Jason improves his Boxee app with a little Python and Shannon is all about combining instant messaging, file sharing and remote access with Qnext.

This week we're breaking out the breadboard for an oldschool Hak5 mod -- the Internet enabled garage door opener. Because when it comes to garage entry, what could be easier than writing an Android app to access a home Apache server, hitting a PHP script that interfaces with a USB Teensy over serial, activating relays connected to a remote. Duh.

This time on Hak5 Jason Appelbaum is writing an Android app to interface with our PHP/Apache/Arduino controlled garage door opener. We check out the latest Magic Lantern firmware for the Canon 550D, Shannon joins us to show off Katana — the happy hackers boot key — and answers to your emails.

Securely forwarding X11 over SSH so you can use Linux GUI tools in anywhere — even on Windows. Multi cam editing, SMS rescue texts, Android Terminals and clark kent glasses. All that and more this time on Hak5!

Plus a behind the scenes look at prototype holographic eyewear! Trust your technolust!

Raphael Mudge of FastAndEasyHacking.com joins Rob Fuller, aka Mubix, to talk about his project Armitage; a cross-platform GUI front-end for Rapid7's Metasploit. Mudge demonstrate setting up the software, scanning for targets, attacking hosts with client side attacks or remote exploits, and finally pivoting throughout the network using pass-the-hash techniques. Time to grab some paper, pencil and an unsuspecting virtual machine!

This time on Hak5 we're asking the question, can a three node Virtualization Cluster be built for under $1000? With the help of Proxmox, an open source virtualization environment, some cardboard boxes and a knife -- we find out!

This time on Hak5 we venture back to DC for Shmoocon and meet up with Michael Ossmann of GreatScottGadgets.com to find out about project Ubertooth - a custom hardware device for sniffing and injecting bluetooth packets.
