Detecting and Concealing Tinypilot and PIKVM Detection Mechanism Both TinyPilot and PIKVM can be detected due to their physical HDMI and USB connections. When plug-and-play hardware is connected, the computer identifies details like the manufacturer, serial number, etc., enabling automatic driver installation. IT departments might have software that scans computers, retrieving a list of all connected devices. By default: - TinyPilot doesn't conceal its identity. - PIKVM identifies itself explicitly as "PIKVM", allowing anyone with IT knowledge to recognize and understand its purpose with a simple Google search. How to Conceal Device Identities For PiKVM: 1. Disable Mass Storage: Turn it off to avoid detection. Refer to the official guide and check the "Disable MSD" section. 2. Change USB Identification: Modify the USB manufacturer and serial number details. Check the FAQ under "How do I emulate various USB devices on the target machine?". 3. Adjust HDMI EDID: Alter the EDID for HDMI. Details can be found in the official documentation under "kvmd-edidconfig". For TinyPilot: 1. Disable Virtual Media: Turn it off for concealment. Refer to the forum discussion for guidance. 2. Modify EDID: Change the EDID settings as per the official FAQ.
