Tooth Paste

Abstract

1. Introduction

ToothPaste allows a user to transmit AES-256 encrypted keyboard and mouse commands to any USB-compatible device wirelessly, without the need for specialized drivers or extensive set-up using WEB-BLE, a Cryptographic IC and an ESP32-S3.

This means existing solutions like KDE Connect are non-starters since, at the very least, they require both devices to run a compatible operating system and allow installing third-party software.

The obvious answer then, is to use an interface system that is universally supported - USB. Specifically the USB Human Interface Device (HID) standard. Almost every USB-host compatible device supports using a keyboard as means of controlling it and, because this is presumed to be a direct extension of a user, it is implicitly trusted (keyboards don't have passwords because how would you enter the password ).

2. Objective

Secure Wireless Data-Transfer over BLE and USB for Passwords, Pentesting and Media Control.

This project demonstrates how TypeScript, ESP32 can be applied to a real-world Cybersecurity & Ethical Hacking problem.
