#wasfehlt: Der elektronische Hundeabstandshalter

Der Hund von Aleks hat einen Erzfeind, eine Dänische Dogge, die in der direkten Nachbarschaft lebt. Beide Hunde sind große, starke, unkastrierte Rüden und in ihrer Wut nur schwer zu halten, wenn sie sich draußen begegnen. Die Menschen, die zur Dogge gehören, haben zwar eigentlich auch ein Interesse daran, dass die beiden sich aus dem Weg gehen, nehmen das Thema aber nicht so richtig ernst. Sie kündigen an "wir gehen nur zu den und den Zeiten raus", halten sich dann aber nicht dran, weil sie meinen, dass nur mal kurz zum Laden gehen ja nicht zählt. Eine Aufteilung des Dorfs in zwei Reviere ist auch keine Option, die beiden Hunde leben nebeneinander an einem Ende des Dorfs.

Ich muss zugeben, dass Bunny hier eher Täter ist als Opfer. Er hat angefangen (weil er zuerst da war und findet, dass dieses Revier ihm gehört) und die Dogge ist sicher ansonsten ein ganz lieber Hund. Ich verstehe schon, dass die Doggenfamilie da der Meinung ist, sie müssten sich nicht kümmern, sondern wir. Aber ohne Kooperation geht das schlecht.

Nach einem Jahr des Doggenterrors denke ich: Vielleicht gibt es ja eine technische Lösung. Mit Hilfe von ChatGPT, meinem Bruder und dem Techniktagebuch-Chat recherchiere ich, ob man herausfinden kann, wann die Dogge draußen unterwegs ist.

Esther Seyffarth schlägt einen Spaziermeldeknopf vor, den jeder Hund drückt. Aber ich glaube nicht an Lösungen, in denen "da müssen alle dran denken, und zwar jedes Mal" vorkommt.

Nächster Vorschlag von Esther: "Der Haustürschlüssel muss einen RFID-Chip bekommen und an einem Schlüsselbrett mit RFID-Leser aufbewahrt werden und sobald der Schlüssel entfernt wird, sendet der angeschlossene Raspberry Pi eine 'wir sind draußen' Nachricht an Bunny via Telegram. Aber Moment, dann könntet ihr ja auch nicht raus wenn die Leute einfach mal ohne Hund zum Bäcker gehen oder den Müll rausbringen."

Außerdem müssten sie dann den Raspberry immer angeschlossen lassen und sich um sein Funktionieren kümmern. Wir brauchen was Kooperationsfreies. In anderen Worten: Was Illegales, Unethisches und Privatsphärenverletzendes.

Nach Beratung durch ChatGPT und meinen Bruder probiere ich Folgendes aus: Ich installiere ein Ding namens Aircrack-ng und noch ein paar andere Sachen, die irgendwie dazugehören. ChatGPT gibt mir ein kleines Pythonscript. Damit kann ich von meinem Laptop aus die MAC-Adressen aller Geräte sehen, die sich in der Nähe befinden. Das geht, wenn auf den Geräten WLAN eingeschaltet ist, weil sie dann ständig in der Gegend herumtasten auf der Suche nach einem WLAN, und dabei ihre individuelle Gerätekennung übermitteln. Das Pythonscript sieht zwar vor, dass man diese MAC-Adressen nur verschlüsselt, also sowas-wie-anonymisiert zu sehen bekommt. Man kann diesen Teil aber einfach auskommentieren, dann sieht man die MAC-Adressen aller Geräte. Das Ganze klappt nicht auf Anhieb, aber ChatGPT ist sehr hilfreich beim Debuggen, und nach ein, zwei Stunden l��uft es.

Ich bin gerade nicht in Schottland, aber wenn ich dort wäre, würde ich jetzt am Fenster warten, bis die Dogge vorbeikommt, und dann nachsehen, welche MAC-Adresse das Handy hatte, das da gerade mit vorbeigegangen ist. In der Annahme, dass es sich um das Handy des Doggenbesitzers handelt und auf diesem Handy WLAN immer eingeschaltet ist, so wie auf meinem ja auch.

Wenn ich diese MAC-Adresse mal habe, müsste es möglich sein, draußen festzustellen, ob das zur Dogge gehörende Handy in unserer Nähe ist. Leider erst dann, wenn es 20 bis 100 Meter entfernt ist, aber besser als nichts. Dazu bräuchte ich eine portablere Lösung, ich will ja nicht den Laptop mit rausnehmen, aber über die plane ich dann nachzudenken, wenn es so weit ist.

Mein Bruder meint: "Vermutlich hat die Hundenase höhere Reichweite. Aber ein bisschen müsste man mit einer WLAN Antenne was erreichen. Wenn es dann ein Raspberry mit WLAN-Adapter mit Antenne ist, könnte es besser funktionieren." Ich sehe uns schon mit einer meterhohen Kalter-Krieg-Installation draußen herumlaufen.

Im Techniktagebuch-Chat meint Esther: "Schöner wäre eine Lösung, die zwar die anderen völlig passiv bleiben lässt, mit der sie aber trotzdem einverstanden sind und die nicht hinter ihrem Rücken stattfindet. Dann müssen sie nicht aktiv kooperieren, aber es wäre trotzdem nicht unethisch."

Gleichzeitig sagen mir Mia Culpa und mein Gewissen, dass es so wirklich nicht geht. Bestimmt denken alle Stalker von sich, dass ihr Stalken ja irgendwie durch die Umstände legitimiert ist.

Deshalb verwerfe ich den Plan wieder und schlage Aleks vor, dass er der Doggenfamilie einen GPS-Hundetracker kauft und das dazugehörige Monatsabo bezahlt (so 5-10 Euro im Monat), unter der Bedingung, dass er den Hund auch damit orten darf. Aber das will er nicht, weil er nicht glaubt, dass die Motivation im Doggenhaushalt groß genug ist, dass sie den Tracker dann auch wirklich immer am Hund haben und aufladen (obwohl sie den Hund, falls er verlorengeht, selbst damit orten könnten).

Thomas Jungbluth schlägt vor: "Wenn es ein Apple-Haushalt ist, könnte man auch die AirTracker in einem entsprechenden Hundehalsband nehmen, die integrieren sich etwas aufwandsgeringer in die elektronische Infrastruktur (die Woist-App hat jeder auf seinem Gerät). Akkudauer laut Apple ein Jahr."

Kirsten Schelper ist derselben Meinung: "Ein kleines AirIrgendwas am Halsband (der Dogge) würde ich für am vielversprechendsten halten. Die echten GPS Tracker sind vergleichsweise riesig, ich denke die landen schnell in der Ecke. Und der Akku hält nicht lange. Ein kleines AirIrgendwas, das klein und unauffällig ist, bleibt am Halsband, weil keiner mehr dran denkt, dass es da ist."

Aber der Haushalt von Aleks ist kein Apple-Haushalt. Außerdem updaten die AirTags ihren Standort wohl eher selten. Beim Hundeerzfeind sind wir aber auf einen präzisen und aktuellen Standort angewiesen. Ich fürchte, das verträgt sich einfach nicht mit einem Jahr Batterielaufzeit. Und dann funktionieren AirTags nur dadurch, dass sich möglichst viele iPhones um das AirTag herum befinden, die das Signal weitergeben. Die Hunde leben in einem nicht sehr bewohnten Dorf, die Handydichte ist also gering und die iPhone-Dichte sicher noch viel geringer.

Unsere Diskussion gerät wieder aufs unethische Gelände, Drohnen und versteckte CCTV-Kameras werden diskutiert. Aber ich fürchte, das ist noch schlimmer als mein verworfener MAC-Adressen-Erfassungsplan.

Die Suche bleibt ergebnislos. Naja, jedenfalls weiß ich dadurch jetzt, wie ich an meinem Laptop die MAC-Adressen aller vorbeikommenden Geräte erfassen, anzeigen und speichern kann. In der Folge suche ich eine Weile nach einer Lösung, wie ich bei meinem eigenen Handy WLAN automatisch ausschalten kann, wenn ich nicht zu Hause bin. Weil man damit nämlich allen im Umkreis einer WLAN-Reichweite ums eigene Handy herum "Hallo! Hier kommt Kathrin!" sagt. Obwohl ich angenommen hätte, dass das zu den Standardfunktionen von Android gehört oder es wenigstens 35 verschiedene Apps dafür gibt, finde ich nichts.

Im Redaktionschat kündige ich an: "Ich schreibe dann irgendwann die ganzen nichtfunktionierenden Lösungen auf, damit ich auf den Beitrag verweisen kann, wenn es in zehn Jahren eine selbstverständliche, ganz einfache, privatsphärenschonende Lösung für genau dieses Problem gibt, eine Art elektronischen Hundeabstandshalter. Mit energy harvesting aus dem Hund natürlich, so dass man nie den Akku laden muss. Eigentlich müsste sich aus Bunnys Reißen an der Leine eine sehr große Menge Energie gewinnen lassen."

Einige Tage nach dieser Lösungssuche richtet Aleks eine WhatsApp-Gruppe für sich und den Doggenbesitzer ein. Sie legen Rausgeh-Zeitslots für beide Hunde fest und benutzen WhatsApp, um sich bei Ausnahmen abzusprechen. Seitdem herrscht Frieden.

Deep Dive into Wi-Fi Hacking: How Ethical Hackers Secure Your Wireless Networks

With our hyper-connected world, Wi-Fi is the unseen lifeline keeping us online today. From streaming your favorite shows to managing your smart home devices, Wi-Fi is everywhere. But have you ever stopped to think about just how secure your wireless network really is? What if someone could sneak into your network, steal your data, or even hijack your devices? Scary, right? That’s where ethical hackers come in—the unsung heroes of the digital age who use their skills to protect, not exploit. If you’ve ever been curious about how they do it, or if you’re considering a cybersecurity and ethical hacking course, this blog is for you.

The Dark Side of Wi-Fi: Why It’s a Hacker’s Playground

Well, face it: Wi-Fi networks are a goldmine for cybercriminals. Why? Because they are usually the easiest weakness in our digital defense. It has weak passwords, outdated encryption, and misconfigured routers. That's not to mention stealing your Netflix login. Hackers can use it as an open gateway to access more of your digital life.

Here's your scenario: You're having your favorite coffee at a quaint little café while making use of their free Wi-Fi. Well, a hacker within some tables from you is running Aircrack-ng or Wireshark for quite a bit on your data that's going by. Before you realize it, they have gotten your login credentials, credit card information, or even obtained access to your corporate emails. How scary does that sound?

Enter Ethical Hackers: The Good Guys of Wi-Fi Security

That is when the ethical hackers come in. Cybersecurity professionals use the same hacking tools and techniques as evil hackers, with one difference though: they work for you. Their job is to find a hole before a hacker does so that they may fix it before hackers can gain entry into your network.

How do they go about it? Let's dissect this:

Reconnaissance: Ethical hackers first gather information about the target network. They use tools such as Kismet or NetStumbler to identify the network's SSID, encryption type, and connected devices.

Exploitation: Once they have identified potential weaknesses, they try to exploit them. For example, if the network uses outdated WEP encryption (which is notoriously weak), they might use tools like Aircrack-ng to crack the password.

Post-Exploitation: Having obtained access, the ethical hacker calculates the potential damage that can be done. Could they have accessed sensitive files? Could they have launched a man-in-the-middle attack? This step will give them a sense of real-world impact from the vulnerability.

Reporting and Patching: They finally document their findings and collaborate with the owner of the network to fix the issues. It may involve updating firmware, changing passwords, or enabling stronger encryption like WPA3.

Why You Should Care About Wi-Fi Security

You may be thinking: "I am an average user, so why would somebody even bother with me?" The thing is, hackers don't discriminate. Whether you are just an individual, a small business owner, or part of a large corporation, your Wi-Fi network is a potential target. And with the emergence of IoT devices, such as smart thermostats, security cameras, and voice assistants, the risk is much bigger than ever.

Here's the good news: You don't need to be a tech genius to protect yourself. By learning the basics of Wi-Fi security or even enrolling in a cybersecurity and ethical hacking course, you can take control of your digital safety.

How to Secure Your Wi-Fi Network: Tips from the Pros

Want to make your Wi-Fi network hacker-proof? Here are some practical tips inspired by ethical hackers:

Use Strong Passwords: Avoid using common passwords, such as "admin" or "password123." Instead, use long complex phrase with letters, numbers, and symbols.

Enable WPA3 Encryption: The latest Wi-Fi encryption protocol is WPA3; if your router supports it, switch to WPA3.

Update Your Router's Firmware: Manufacturers in their official websites may have coming updates that address security vulnerabilities. Check and update the firmware on your router to a newer edition.

WPS: Wi-Fi Protected Setup is convenient but highly insecure. Just turn it off to minimize brute-force attacks.

Check Connected Devices: You would be surprised to know which device is connected to your network if you don't check it periodically. If something looks suspicious, investigate immediately.

Ready to Be a Wi-Fi Warrior?

If this deep dive into Wi-Fi hacking has piqued your interest, why not take it further? A cybersecurity and ethical hacking course can teach you the skills you need to protect yourself—and maybe even turn your passion for tech into a rewarding career. Imagine being the person who uncovers vulnerabilities, thwarts cyberattacks, and keeps the digital world safe. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?

Ethical hacking is not the art of hacking into systems, but understanding how they work so that such knowledge can be applied to strengthen their defenses. In a world that is ever changing with threats through cyber, it has never been a better time to learn.

Final Thoughts

It sounds like something out of a spy movie, but the truth is that Wi-Fi hacking is an everyday threat in your life. The good news is that with the right information and tools you can protect yourself and your loved ones from becoming cybercrime victims. However, whether you are a tech enthusiast or a complete beginner, a course in cybersecurity and ethical hacking will empower you to take the lead in digital security.

Remember the next time you connect to a Wi-Fi network: those invisible waves keeping you online can be the doors for hackers. Stay informed and vigilant, and maybe you will end up being that ethical hacker who saves the day.

So, stay safe and happy ethical hacking!
