February 22-25, 2021 - Advanced Hardware Hacking with the ChipWhisperer: Hands-On Side Channel Analysis, Fault Injection and Their Countermeasures (32-bit Arm Cortex M3/M4 and 8-bit XMEGA). Download Syllabus
Getting Started
Let us help you understand these attacks. We offer a range of educational material for various uses.
​
Start here to learn the fundamentals of embedded security by reading our "Embedded Security 101" guide. More information about how glitching and power analysis work can also be found here.
Jupyter Tutorials
Jupyter Notebooks are an interactive Python environment. They allow you to connect to hardware, perform power captures, plot data, and more.
​
Our tutorials use the Jupyter platform to teach you about power analysis attacks like DPA and CPA, and fault injection attacks with clock and voltage glitching.
​
Check out the full list of tutorials from the open-source Github page:
