That being said, it’s a great proof-of-concept and runs surprisingly well. There are certainly some privacy issues to consider if you plan to use a Chromebook for all of your pentesting needs. So, like any good offensive security professional with a new toy, the first question I had to ask is whether or not I could turn it into a decent pentesting rig. It has a pair of USB ports (one 2.0, one 3.0) and an SD card slot for expansion. Even with Developer Mode activated (more on that to come), it boots up in a manner of seconds. I have to say, I’m pretty impressed so far. I had never had much of a chance to play around in ChromeOS until now, so I was excited to get my hands dirty.
A local high school was getting rid of those machines that had previously belonged to graduating seniors who had chosen not to buy them outright at the end of the year.
I had the opportunity to pick up a Chromebook (Acer C720) on the cheap(er) this past weekend.
