Add Hardware Tripwire Section #36

@maltfield

Description

@maltfield

Thanks for the great list! May I suggest adding a new Hardware section to defend against physical attacks (eg theft of a machine with encrypted data) that powers-off the machine or triggers wipe of encryption keys?

Here's two open-source hardware projects for tripwires/dead-man-switches

  1. BusKill
  2. Day Tripper

The following guide describes how BusKill can be configured to wipe the LUKS Header (containing the FDE key) and its metadata. It shows a video demo where the machine wiped the keys & powered-off in <6 seconds, and it includes a post-execution forensic analysis in Kali with bulk_extractor
