The intersection of animals and technology is about more than cat videos on YouTube and the Doge meme. This year’s Def Con hacking convention in Las Vegas showcased a pair of projects mixing pets with computer security.
War Kitteh and Denial of Service Dog were both the work of Gene Bransfield, from Tenacity Solutions, and involved attaching antennae and mini-computers to one friend’s cat and another’s dog.
For War Kitteh, Bransfield packed the kit onto the animal’s collar, including a Spark Core Wi-Fi development board running the Spark.io operating system, which gave the cat the connectivity it required. Its location was tracked using GPS technology, with data stored on an SD memory card.
What data? The point of the project was for War Kitteh to roam the streets, detecting Wi-Fi networks that were either unprotected, or using weak weak encryption algorithms like WEP.
On one wander, the cat picked up 23 unique Wi-Fi hotspots, four of which were completely open with no password required to log on, and another four using WEP rather than the more-secure WPA-2 standard.
Bransfield told the Guardian that the project was intended to spark awareness about why people should take more care securing their Wi-Fi networks, in the hope that involving cats in the debate will make less tech-savvy people pay attention.
