BadUSB Market Comparison

This page compares BYTEBOLT One against the most common BadUSB devices used in penetration testing and security-awareness engagements — the USB Rubber Ducky (Hak5), WHID Cactus, MalDuino, and the Digispark ATtiny85 board — across the criteria that actually matter on a live engagement: USB descriptor spoofing, per-device campaign tracking, CE compliance, killswitch behaviour, custom enclosures, and open-source licensing.

Vendors, specs and prices can change frequently — if you spot an inaccuracy, please get in contact with us.
