In 2019, the Raspberry Pi 4 was released with specs including either 1 GB, 2 GB, or 4 GB of memory, a Broadcom BCM2711B0 quad-core A72 SoC, a USB Type-C power supply, and dual Micro-HDMI outputs. Performance and hardware changes aside, the Pi 4 Model B runs Kali Linux just as well, if not better, than its predecessors. It also includes support for Wi-Fi hacking on its internal wireless card.
For hackers interested in a cheap Kali Linux computer capable of hacking Wi-Fi without a separate wireless network adapter, the Pi 4 Model B is a great way to run Kali without needing a virtual machine. Thanks to the number of Wi-Fi hacking tools included in Kali Linux, the new Pi 4 Model B represents a complete Ethernet and Wi-Fi hacking kit for beginners.
Hacking on a $45 Computer
The reasons for using a Raspberry Pi as a hacking computer are many. Previous Raspberry Pi versions have proved that it doesn't take expensive hardware to run tools in Kali Linux. Virtual machines can behave unpredictably, especially when working with Wi-Fi hacking. Plus, it's sometimes more straightforward to run Kali on hardware rather than in a virtual machine.
Another advantage to the Raspberry Pi is that it can easily be used in combination with a device like an unmodified iPhone or Android smartphone. If your smartphone supports creating a Wi-Fi hotspot, it's simple to connect the Pi to your hotspot and control it over SSH. If your smartphone can't create a hotspot, the Pi can also host its own Wi-Fi network, allowing you to join the network created by the Pi on your phone and SSH into it on ..
