DESCRIPTION
USB Armory MkII is a full featured computer in a tiny form-factor, designed from the ground up with information security applications in mind.
Example security application ideas to illustrate the flexibility of the USB Armory Mk II:
Mass storage device with advanced features such as automatic encryption, virus scanning, host authentication, and data self-destruct
Hardware Security Module (HSM)
OpenSSH client and agent for untrusted hosts (e.g., Internet kiosks)
Router for end-to-end VPN tunnelling
Tor bridge
Password manager with integrated web server
Electronic wallet
Authentication token
Portable penetration testing platform
Low-level USB security testing

SOFTWARE
The USB Armory MkII hardware is supported by standard software environments and requires very little customization. Vanilla Linux kernels and standard distributions run seamlessly on the tiny board:
Boots from on-board eMMC or microSD (or via USB serial downloader)
Native Linux support – creating boot images is easy
Precompiled images are available for Debian 9 (Stretch) and Arch Linux, with more on the way
USB device emulation (CDC Ethernet, mass storage, HID, etc.)
CONNECTIVITY
USB 2.0 over USB-C plug to host with full device emulation
USB 2.0 over USB-C receptacle for the additional devices or as a connection to host
Full TCP/IP connection to/from USB armory via USB CDC Ethernet emulation
Flash drive functionality via USB mass storage device emulation
Serial communication over USB or physical UART using the Debug Board
Wireless connectivity over BLE
Note: only the USB 2.0 protocol is supported over both USB-C ports, therefore it should be emphasized that HDMI video over USB-C is not supported.
