HARDWARE SECURITY & EMBEDDED RESEARCH

As hardware becomes increasingly interconnected — from IoT devices to automotive systems — the risks of low-level attacks grow rapidly. At ITCypro, our Hardware Security & Embedded Research service is designed to uncover and address vulnerabilities deep within hardware and embedded systems, helping you stay ahead of emerging threats.

Our team combines deep technical knowledge with hands-on experience in hardware reverse engineering, firmware analysis, and physical attack surfaces. Whether you’re developing secure IoT devices, testing embedded firmware, or researching automotive control units, we provide the insight and expertise to identify and mitigate risks early in the development or deployment lifecycle.

From side-channel attacks and glitching to secure boot validation and hardware fuzzing, our research-driven approach ensures that your hardware-based products meet the highest security standards.

Let us help you build, test, and secure the physical core of your digital systems.

We offer the following services:

  • Firmware Reverse Engineering
    Analysis of extracted firmware for hidden vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, insecure update mechanisms, and backdoors.
  • Physical Interface Analysis
    Inspection and exploitation of interfaces such as UART, SPI, I2C, and JTAG to assess debug exposure and access control weaknesses.
  • Glitching & Fault Injection
    Application of voltage glitching or clock manipulation techniques to bypass secure boot, authentication, or cryptographic logic.
  • Side-Channel Attack Simulation
    Identification of sensitive information leakage through power consumption, EM emissions, or timing — especially in embedded crypto implementations.
  • Secure Boot and Trust Anchor Validation
    Review and testing of secure boot processes, firmware signing mechanisms, and hardware root-of-trust implementation.
  • IoT and Embedded Device Security Assessment
    Full-stack review of connected devices, including hardware, firmware, network interfaces, and APIs for potential security gaps.
  • Automotive Systems Testing
    Security evaluation of ECUs, infotainment systems, and communication buses (CAN, LIN, etc.) with focus on safety-critical functionality.
  • Custom Tooling and Automation
    Development of custom scripts and tools for large-scale firmware analysis, interface fuzzing, and automation of hardware test benches.
  • Consulting and R&D Collaboration
    Advisory services for secure hardware product design and joint research on advanced embedded system protection strategies.

 

Whether you’re building secure IoT solutions, testing prototypes, or auditing deployed hardware in the field — our team will work closely with you to identify vulnerabilities and fortify your systems from the ground up.
