Op-Ed | THESIGN.MEDIA: SATCOM Networks are Not Impenetrable (but Some Pretend They Are) | Gabriel Gonzalez
THESIGN.MEDIA | Gabriel Gonzalez, IOActive Director of Hardware Security, recently wrote an op-ed for THESIGN.MEDIA discussing IOActive’s research into vulnerabilities of SATCOM infrastructures. This is a topic that IOActive has continued to warn the industry about dating back to our findings in 2014. Gabriel expands saying, “From an attacker’s perspective, modern SATCOM systems resemble under-secured enterprise networks – except their failure modes carry national, economic, and physical consequences.” “In this op-ed, Gabriel Gonzalez, Director of Hardware Security at
Print in the Channel | Why Document Scanner Security Matters in Hybrid Workplaces: Risks & Solutions

Tom’s Hardware | Raspberry Pi’s RP2350 Hacking Challenge results announced — four winners are each awarded the full $20K prize
Tom’s Hardware | Check out this article from Tom’s Hardware highlighting IOActive’s recent win for ‘Extracting antifuse secrets from RP2350 by FIB/PVC’ during the RP2350 Hacking Challenge hosted by Raspberry Pi. “Data bits stored in the RP2350’s OPT memories, based on antifuses, were extracted using a well-known semiconductor failure analysis technique leveraging passive voltage contrast (PVC) with a focused ion beam (FIB). IOActive’s five-strong team reckons their unique attack vector is potent enough to apply to other systems using antifuse memory for confidentiality. Organizations…
Forbes Exclusive | Raspberry Pi Confidential Data Hack Attack—What You Need To Know
Forbes | IOActive researchers recently applied a new technique during the RP2350 Hacking Challenge hosted by Raspberry Pi. This Forbes article highlights our team’s research, which secured a win during the challenge for “Extracting antifuse secrets from RP2350 by FIB/PVC.” … “The fully-invasive antifuse memory reading technique we demonstrated with the example RP2350 can very likely be utilized against other types of antifuse memories,” IOActive’s senior vice president of research and strategy, John Sheehy, told me, “which are frequently used to store small amounts…
Popular Science | Researchers hack digital license plates, demonstrating way to evade tolls and cops
Popular Science | Josep Pi Rodriguez, IOActive Principal Consultant, recently featured his discovery of a technique to ‘jailbreak’ digital license plates in this piece from Popular Science. “… Cybersecurity researchers at from IOActive have demonstrated how a similar type of sleight of hand can potentially be performed in the real-world by hacking a popular brand of new digital driver’s license plates. By using a “fault injection” hardware attack, the researches have shown how a hacker could, hypothetically at least, essentially
