Stealth MAC is an absolute necessity if you’re going to be doing anything subversive from your iPod/iPhone every network enabled device has what is known as a MAC address which is a unique identifier that’s assigned to the network adapter by the manufacturer. These are supposed to be globally unique ( but that’s not always the case) and normally the first three pairs of numbers/letters identify the hardware manufacturer. This is terrible if we’re planning on doing something subversive on a network as it’s a digital footprint of our activities.

Skyhook the company behind the WiFi pseudo GPS in the iPod touch and the iPhone apparently has an API that allows you access to their database. Using this database you can find the physical geographic location of a WiFi router or access point.

Hi everyone! Like I promised last week I’ve been hard at work sorting out my ultimate portable covert hacking device install. I’m going to jailbreak my old iPod touch (Replaced by my iPhone 3G) and turn it into a portable innocent looking mobile hacking outpost I can carry with me anywhere.

I’ve been doing a lot of toying around with Apple’s Time Machine lately and recently stumbled onto this tool that allows you to change the schedule that Time Machine uses to back up your Mac (Normally this is done every hour). Every our is a little excessive for most users in my opinion (Well at least for me it is).
