Get up to speed with the latest attack techniques and patterns to pentest and secure all your devices
Key FeaturesFind the best practices for securely designing your IoT devices with practical examplesExplore various penetration testing tools and techniques to secure your hardware infrastructurePractice attacking and securing various modern devices with step-by-step guidanceBook Description
Practical Hardware Pentesting, Second Edition, is an example-driven guide that will help you plan attacks, hack your embedded devices, and secure the hardware infrastructure.
Throughout the book, you'll explore the functional and security aspects of a device and learn how a system senses and communicates with the outside world. You'll set up a lab from scratch and gradually work towards an advanced hardware lab.
The first part of this book will get you attacking the software of an embedded device. This will get you thinking from an attacker point of view; you'll understand how devices are attacked, compromised, and how you can harden a device against the most common hardware attack vectors. As you progress, you'll get to grips with the global architecture of an embedded system and sniff on-board traffic, learn how to identify and formalize threats to the embedded system, and understand its relationship with its ecosystem. This 2nd Edition covers real-world examples featuring various devices like smart TVs, baby monitors, or pacemakers, you'll discover how to analyze hardware and locate its possible vulnerabilities before going on to explore firmware dumping, analysis, and exploitation.
By the end of this book, you'll and understand how to implement best practices to secure your hardware.
What you will learnPerform an embedded system test and identify security critical functionalitiesLocate critical security components and buses and learn how to attack themDiscover how to dump and modify stored informationUnderstand and exploit the relationship between the firmware and hardwareIdentify and attack the security functions supported by the functional blocks of the deviceDevelop an attack lab to support advanced device analysis and attacksWho This Book Is For
If you're a researcher or a security professional who wants a comprehensive and practical introduction into hardware security assessment, then this book is for you. Electrical engineers who want to understand the vulnerabilities of their devices and design them with security in mind will also find this book useful. You won't need any prior knowledge with hardware pentesting before you get started; everything you need is in the chapters.
