When we first reviewed the Pwnie Express Pwn Plug back in April, we came away with the impression that Pwnie Express was on the verge of something big, but that the total product wasn’t quite there. While there was no question Pwnie Express had put together a winning combination of hardware, the software had the distinct impression of being a work in progress. Based on an OS that was past its end of life, and running outdated security tools, it was clear the software needed a makeover to do the rest of the Pwn Plug product justice.
Fortunately, our interview with CEO Dave Porcello made it clear a vastly improved version of the system software was coming, completely revamping the system internally and adding a slew of new tools and capabilities at the same time.
