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.
