Exploiting these vulnerabilities can allow attackers to cause network resources to be exhausted, resulting in a reboot of the ViPNet Coordinator due to an internal...

Embedded device research. The tools you’ll need

Over the last couple of years, we’ve run many courses on embedded device security. The focus is often defensive, but all the courses have an aspect of offensive: hacking demonstration and real devices so that you can understand the mindset of an attacker. To hack devices, you need tools. And the...
