Also, I have personally purchased almost every single item from this list out of my own pocket based on needs for engagements. If there are any other items that are not on this list and you believe they should be, feel free to DM or ping me on twitter (@DavidProbinsky) and I can add them.***


Commonly used tools for Red Teaming Engagements, Physical Security Assessments, and Tactical Covert Entry.

In this list I decided to share most of the tools I utilize in authorized engagements, including where to find some of them, and in some cases I will also include some other alternative tools. I am not providing information on how to use these tools, since this information can be found online with some research. My goal with this list is to help fellow Red Teamers with a 'checklist', for whenever they might be missing a tool, and use this list as a reference for any engagement. Stay safe and legal!!



Recon Tool Where to find Alternative
1. Camera with high zoom Recommended: Panasonic Lumix FZ-80 with 60x Zoom Camera Alternative: If not the Panasonic, you can use others. There are many other good cameras in the market. Try to get one with a decent zoom, any camera with over 30x Optical Zoom should work just fine.
1.1 Polarized Camera Filters Recommended: Any polarized filter that fits the lens of your camera. Alternatives: N/A.
2. Body Worn Action Camera Recommended: GoPro cameras or the DJI Osmo Action cameras Alternatives: There are other cheaper alternative action cameras that can be used, however the videos may not have the highest quality or best image stabilization, which can make the footage seem wobbly or too dark.
3. Drone with Camera Recommended: DJI Mavic Mini Series or any other drone that fits your budget. N/A
4. Two-Way Radios or Walkie Talkies Recommended: BaoFeng UV-5R Alternatives would be to just use cellphones and bluetooth headsets and a live call, however with this option you will not be able to listen to local radio chatter. A cell phone serves the purpose of being able to communicate with the client in case of emergency.
5. Reliable flashlight Amazon, Ebay, local hardware store If you want to save some money, you can always use the flashlight of your cellphone, however some phones cant decrease the brightness intensity.
6. Borescope / Endoscope Recommended: USB Endoscope Camera There are a few other alternatives, varying in price, size, and connectivity.
7. RFID Detector Recommended: One good benefit of the Dangerous Things RFID Diagnostics Card is that its the size of a credit card, so it fits perfectly in your wallet for EDC use. Cheaper Alternative: The RF Detector by ProxGrind can be used as a keychain.
8. Alfa AWUS036ACS 802.11ac Recommended: Alfa AWUS036ACS N/A
9. CANtenna N/A Yagi Antennas also work the same way.

12. Gaffer Tape Recommended because of its portability: Red Team Tools Gaffer Tape Alternatives: There are many other options on Amazon, but they are all larger in size.
13. A reliable set of 0.025 thin lockpick set Recommended to get a well known brand with good reputation and quality products. Some of those are: TOOOL, Sparrows, SouthOrd, Covert Instruments N/A. You do not want a pick breaking inside of a client's lock. Avoid sets that are of unknown brands from ebay.
14. A reliable set of 0.018 thin lockpick set Recommended to get a well known brand with good reputation and quality products. Some of those are: TOOOL, Sparrows, SouthOrd, Covert Instruments N/A.
