IoT Hacking with SDR: Essential

Hacking standard IoT devices with software-defined radio: the common attacks, the security mechanisms most IoT systems use, and ways to bypass them when possible.

You will leave able to
  • Understand the security mechanisms of IoT systems
  • Attack common ISM-band technologies
  • Assess mobile network systems
  • Attack LoRa and LoRaWAN systems
  • Work on power-line communication systems
  • Use URH features and tricks
  • Use new GNU Radio modules and tricks
Who it is for
  • Learners who finished our Introduction and GNU Radio courses
  • Embedded and product security engineers
  • Pentesters assessing connected devices

How it runs and what to know

How it works

A self-paced online course: video lessons, exercises and resources (a virtual machine, captures or scripts, depending on the course), followed at your own pace on this site.

What this course is, and is not

It is not a training action within the meaning of the French Labour Code: no trainer, no assessment, no end-of-training certificate, and not eligible for OPCO or CPF funding. For a trainer-led session, see our live trainings.

Access

Access starts as soon as your purchase is confirmed, for the period shown on the course. It is for one person only: an account used by several people is suspended immediately, without refund.

Accessibility

If you have a disability or a specific need, contact us before you buy and we will help where we can.


What you will discover

It follows our Introduction and GNU Radio courses, and goes further with the attacks and bypasses that matter on IoT.
