Applied Hardware Attacks 1 - Embedded and IoT Systems

This hands-on class will introduce you to the common interfaces on embedded MIPS and ARM systems, and how to exploit physical access to grant yourself software privilege via UART, JTAG, or SPI. Designed for newcomers to hardware, over 70% of our time will be hands-on with current off-the-shelf hardware, supported by lectures to fill in the background. This is why classes we developed have sold out at Black Hat the past 5 years.
