Brutal is a Linux toolkit for generating HID attack payloads for Teensy boards, similar to a Rubber Ducky but with different syntax. It creates PowerShell and virus-style payloads plus listeners without requiring coding, targeting Windows machines.

Use cases

  • generate teensy hid payloads for penetration testing
  • create powershell attack payloads without coding
  • emulate keyboard to run scripts on a target machine
  • launch listener for reverse shell payload
  • badusb attack toolkit alternative to rubber ducky

When to choose

  • you use Teensy hardware for authorized HID security testing
  • you want payload generation without writing code
  • your targets are Windows machines

When to avoid

  • you need actively maintained tooling (last release 2020)
  • your targets are not Windows
  • you use Rubber Ducky rather than Teensy hardware
