Anyone With A Drone Can Be A Hacker

“A company called Aerial Assault has turned a quadcopter into a flying hacker that scans the world below for insecure devices and vulnerable Wifi ports,” according to Patrick Tucker .  

“Its makers say they built the tool for penetration testing — to help ‘good guys’ diagnose their own weaknesses — but they concede that with a bit of modification, it could be used to exploit those vulnerabilities and install malware from the air… It will retail for $2,500.”
