In this episode of How Do Hackers Do Things, GraVoc Security Consultant, Josh Jenkins, goes into PART 2 of how hackers can steal and clone badges. During this video, Josh will show you how hackers can attempt to steal INDALA Badges using a home-brewed hacking device using the ESP-RFID WiFi module and an off the shelf INDALA badge reader.
This home-brewed device (Called Pettigrew) is a built using commercially available hardware in an unintended way that allows malicious actor to steal and copy a wide array of badges. This type of attack could allow an attacker to physically enter a facility and plant other devices that would allow for further exploitation.

This would typically get done through an External Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing.
