What if the most vulnerable access point in a business isn't a Wi-Fi network or phishing email-but a Bluetooth speaker hidden behind the counter? In this talk, I'll walk you through the overlooked attack surface of open and misconfigured Bluetooth devices, discovered while warwalking through urban environments with nothing more than a regular smartphone - and occasionally a Flipper Zero. From hijacking audio systems to sending rogue print jobs to receipt printers, I'll share real examples of how Bluetooth devices in the wild can expose businesses to unauthorized control and data leakage. This session is both a wake-up call and a hands-on walkthrough of what attackers can do with minimal gear and maximum curiosity.
