Built for Authorized Security Work
ZeroTrace tools are used by security professionals across six authorized testing disciplines.
Penetration Testing
ZeroTrace HID automation devices are built for professional penetration testers performing authorized security assessments. Inject keystrokes, simulate USB attack scenarios, and run scripted payloads across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android targets.
- HID keystroke injection across 50+ keyboard layouts
- WiFi-connected remote payload delivery
- Webhook integration for real-time execution feedback
- Scriptable payloads via the cloud dashboard
Red Team Operations
For red team operators, ZeroTrace provides portable, WiFi-enabled devices that can stage and execute payloads without physical proximity to the target. Multiple firmware variants let you switch between operation modes for different engagement scenarios.
- Multiple firmwares for different operation modes
- No-log policy - operational data stays private
- Remote execution via web interface
- Cross-platform payload compatibility
CTF & Competitions
ZeroTrace devices are used in CTF competitions for their speed, scripting flexibility, and reliability. Write and deploy payloads in seconds from the dashboard. The no-subscription model means no recurring cost between competition cycles.
- Fast payload deployment from web dashboard
- Script library and sharing via Discord community
- Compact, portable hardware
- No recurring fees between competition seasons
OSINT Research
The ZeroTrace OSINT software toolkit provides purpose-built tooling for open-source intelligence gathering workflows. Used by security researchers, investigators, and analysts for authorized research and data aggregation.
- OSINT-specific tooling designed for security professionals
- Integrated into the ZeroTrace dashboard
- Privacy-first - strict no-log policy
- Accessible via web and desktop applications
Security Training & Labs
ZeroTrace hardware is deployed in security training labs for hands-on learning with real tools. Institutions and corporate training programs use bulk device programs to equip students and employees with professional-grade equipment.
- Bulk device programs for teams and labs
- Consistent behavior across devices - repeatable scenarios
- Beginner-accessible with extensive documentation
- Active education resources at docs.zerotrace.pw
Hardening & Validation
Security teams use ZeroTrace devices to test and validate USB device policies, endpoint detection rules, and input security controls. Verify that your defenses work before an attacker tests them for you.
- Test USB allow/blocklist policies
- Validate endpoint detection and response (EDR) rules
- Verify input security controls
- Document evidence of security hardening

All ZeroTrace tools are designed for authorized security testing workflows. Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable laws and obtaining proper authorization before any testing activity.
