Hardware Pentest — Hardware, IoT and payment terminal security
Our Hardware Hacking and IoT Pentest service assesses the security of physical devices and embedded systems through controlled attacks.
One terminal. Many frontiers.
The test connects hardware, firmware and communication to show how a local weakness can become risk for payment operations.
- Firmware and boot — Firmware extraction and analysis, secure boot, updates, code signing and recovery mechanisms.
- Hardware and interfaces — PCB inspection, service ports, debug interfaces, tamper sensors and protection against physical access.
- Payment and cryptography — Assessment of key isolation, secure element, PIN flows and protection of sensitive payment data.
- Communication and perimeter — Tests of network interfaces, pairing, exposed services and communication between terminal, app and infrastructure.
How we work
- Preparation and kickoff — We define models, hardware and firmware versions, objectives, test limits and safety criteria to protect equipment and operations.
- Device mapping — We document components, interfaces, communication flows and the boot chain before directing more invasive tests.
- Risk-driven execution — We validate hypotheses in the lab, with reproducible evidence and immediate communication when a finding has relevant impact.
- Report and retest — We deliver root cause, impact, technical recommendations and acceptance criteria. After fixes, we validate findings under contracted conditions.
