Bold Statements
Netherlands Police is called Politie because they’re so polite. (works only if you suffer from dyslexia)

On Monday the 28th of September 2015 a rather rare event occurred. At around 4 a.m. the moon changed its colour into a dim of red, luckily the sky was clear enough to see something.

If you missed that event your next chance will be in about 15 years or so.
The reason for being awake this early wasn’t the moon in the first place but what followed afterwards – my trip to the hardwear.io Security Conference in The Hague. Continue reading “hardwear.io: Applied Physical Attacks on x86 Systems”

On October 1st and 2nd Flo and I were presenting at
hardwear.io in The Hague, NL. My topic was “Living in a fool’s
wireless-secured paradise” and Flo was presenting his current research
on medical device security. It was the first talk at an international
security conference for me and I am still quite excited! Continue reading “ERNW speaking @ hardwear.io”

As TROOPERS15 has come to an end, I’ve finally got the time and energy to give you a deeper insight into the TR15 badge. As most of you have probably heard during the conference, this year’s badge was based on the OpenPCD2. The OpenPCD 2 is a 13.56MHz NFC Reader, Writer and Emulator under the GNU GPL v2. As NFC is, yet again, on an uprise, a badge with NFC simply gives you the chance to fiddle around and hack stacks of stuff in the real world. Adding some TROOPERS spirit and a few little secrets we hope we’ve designed a pretty nice badge!

Simple everyday work dialog:
“The heater in the basement is still missing a proper thermostat, the ‘binary solution’ isn’t that effective”
– “Buy one…”
– “Ok”
– “Get one you can break…”
– “Ok, but then I’d like a few tools, too”
– “Go for it.”
(That’s the way work should be!)
Result of the dialog: a Danfoss Living Connect Z ( 014G0013 ) and a TI CC1100 Wireless Mini Dev Kit plus a copy of Z-Force to start with.
Goal: Talk to the thermostat!

Continue readingGreetings fellow TROOPERs,
TROOPERS14 has come to an end, and it’s finally time to let you have a go at the Badge’s source code. As promised, it was slightly modified and extended, to show you the full potential of your new gadget. I’ve added some nice payloads from Nikhil Mittal and a few own ones. Above that, for those who took their parts for soldering home, I’ve also added a few quick instructions on how to do the soldering.
Greetings from the Print Media Academy in Heidelberg. Just in time for TROOPERS14, I’ve got the great honor to present this years badge!
Being a TROOPER is tough: You need to know loads of information, learn even more and be able to work fast.
This year we decided to increase your efficiency and speed when collecting data from computer systems and, let’s say, hacking them! Your newest gadget is based on a plain Arduino Leonardo, modded with one of our famous shields. After adding a few LEDs and buttons, it will power up to full functionality.

Continue readingI recently got in contact with Intel AMT for the first time. Surely I had heard about it, knew it was “dangerous”, it was kind of exploitable and had to be deactivated. But I hadn’t actually seen it myself. Well, now I have, and I simply love it and you will probably, too (and don’t forget: love and hate are very very close to each other 😉 )
The following blogpost will be a set of features and instructions on how to own a device with an unconfigured copy of Intel AMT without using any complicated hacks or the famous magic! Continue reading “How to use Intel AMT and have some fun with Mainboards”
