Software gets much of the hacking spotlight, perhaps understandably so. But the physical infrastructure that runs all that code is just as susceptible to messing with, though it takes a different set of knowledge and techniques. Today's Training trio touch on the more solid side of that divide.
So, the box sits in front of you, its secrets beckoning. Where to start? One great place would be Hands-On Hardware Hacking and Reverse Engineering, a Training which will teach hardware-hacking and reverse-engineering techniques commonly used against electronic products and embedded systems. Topics will include tool tutorials, circuit board analysis and modification, embedded security, and common attack vectors. Pay attention, because at the end you'll have to apply these skills to defeat the security of a custom circuit board.
