Sub-GHz Security Testing Tools

Sub-GHz tools for authorised testing

Sub-GHz equipment supports assessment of wireless devices that operate below 1 GHz, including selected remote controls, sensors and access systems. Professional testers can use these tools to capture, analyse and document RF activity during an authorised engagement, helping identify insecure fixed-code designs, weak implementations or unexpected transmissions.

Use these products only with written permission and within the agreed scope. Capture files, timestamps and test notes can support reproducible findings without interfering with systems outside the engagement.

Choose the right tool

• PandwaRF Marauder is designed for autonomous RF capture. It listens on pre-configured frequencies and modulations, demodulates captured data, stores it internally and can replay captures through its dedicated Android application. The manufacturer also lists timestamps, multi-frequency operation and replay from the same device.
• PandwaRF Rogue Pro is a portable sub-1 GHz RF analysis tool used with an Android device or Linux PC. Manufacturer-published features include RF capture, analysis, retransmission, packet sniffing, spectrum analysis, radio scripting, an Android API and SDK, and advanced brute-force capabilities for authorised testing. It supports task splitting and resuming operations.
• InputStick RAT is suited to research workflows involving compatible InputStick hardware and remote input control. Check the current manufacturer specification and supported operating systems before selecting it for a particular assessment.

For discreet, stand-alone capture, consider PandwaRF Marauder. For interactive analysis and advanced testing workflows, PandwaRF Rogue Pro offers broader tooling and computer connectivity. InputStick RAT is a different choice for compatible remote-input research rather than a direct replacement for a sub-GHz RF analyser.

UK and Ireland considerations

Transmitting is regulated in the United Kingdom and Ireland under Ofcom licence-exempt rules and the Wireless Telegraphy Act; receiving and analysing signals for authorised testing is the normal use. Confirm permitted frequencies, power, bandwidth, modulation and location before transmitting. Also review client permission, data handling, privacy requirements and any export-control obligations that may apply to radio equipment or cryptographic features.
