It turns out the Raspberry Pi might be one of the best tools to have on hand for any network engineer. This maker, who goes by Mr.Smashy online, has created a USB Raspberry Pi password thief using a Raspberry Pi Zero W.

The best Raspberry Pi projects have real-world applications and this one is ideal for physical penetration testing. It provides an open-source solution for analyzing one of the most critical barriers in network security.

The project relies on a Raspberry Pi Zero W instead of a regular Pi Zero because of its wireless support. A USB-A add-on board is used to create the thumb drive design needed to plug the device into computers. Software-wise, it's driven by an application called Responder that runs on the light version of Raspberry Pi OS.
