Hardware Hacking Workshop

CPE/ECE Credits: 24

Course Descrption Taking the hard out of hardware hacking.

This is for people who want to actually understand what they’re doing!

Have you ever wanted to reverse engineer a piece of electronics, but didn’t know where to begin? Do you lack the knowledge to troubleshoot hardware hacking problems? Did your Internet resources lack the “how to” hands-on instruction?

Wouldn’t it be nice if someone could take you by the hand and elevate your hardware reverse engineering knowledge from zero to hero in a logical, well organized manner?

Well the search is over because we have developed a new hardware reverse engineering course to do just that!

From using basic hardware debugging tools, to PCB reverse engineering, to circuit and signals analysis, this course will take you from “zero to hero” and equip you with the skills and knowledge you need to approach the challenges of hardware reverse engineering with confidence.

Course Length 3 days
