for hackers and makers

We offers learning kits and security assessment gear for practical and hands-on IoT Security research.

Course Overview

In today’s connected world, IoT security is more critical than ever. This course provides an in-depth, hands-on approach to chip-off exploitation, a powerful hardware hacking technique used for extracting and analyzing firmware from embedded devices.

 

 

Whether you're a security researcher, forensic analyst, or hacker, this course will equip you with practical skills to analyze IoT devices, bypass security mechanisms, and manipulate firmware.

The course covers topics such as:

  • Chip-Off Basics: IoT testing, JTAG/UART, bootloader manipulation, firmware extraction.

  • NodeMCU Hacking: Firmware extraction, analysis, and restoration using XGecu.

  • Smart Bulb Exploitation: Chip-off on Beken chips, firmware recon & analysis.

  • Router Hacking: Disassembly, UART exploitation, firmware extraction & analysis.

 

Perfect for pentesters, forensic analysts, and security researchers, this course equips you with practical hardware hacking skills.

Who Should Take This Course

  • Penetration Testers & Security Researchers – Learn advanced hardware exploitation techniques.

  • Forensic Analysts – Extract and analyze firmware for investigations.
