Cryptocurrency Wallet Exploitation

Cryptocurrency Wallet Exploitation Open Inschrijving (internationaal)

This two-day course focuses on advanced hardware hacking tools and techniques used to exploit common cryptocurrency hardware wallets and their associated STM32-based microcontrollers. It is a hands-on environment where students will learn how to recover the PIN and seed phrase/wallet backup from Trezor One, Trezor Model T, and KeepKey devices using electromagnetic (EMFI) and voltage (VFI) fault injection. Students will be able to apply the same or similar approach to future targets outside of the classroom.

Inhoud

The course is two days in length. It is required to have completed Joe Grand’s (Grand Idea Studio) hardware hacking and reverse engineering training course, Basic and Advanced level at NFI, either this time or in the past.

Content
The training course combines lecture and hands-on exercises for the following topics:

  • Introduction
  • STM32 Tools Exploration
  • Attack Hardware
  • Device Characterization
  • Target Preparation
  • RDP2 Downgrade
  • STM32 Bootloader
  • Trezor One Attack
  • Trezor Model T Attack
  • PIN Cracking

A complete agenda for the training course is available on request.

Prerequisites:
Joe Grand's Hardware Hacking Basics, Firmware Extraction and Manipulation, and
Defeating Microcontroller Code Protection or with prior approval from instructor.
These are included in: NFI's Hardware Hacking and Reverse Engineering Basic and Advanced courses.

Target group
Only from ENFSI-labs and/or NATO countries:

  • digital police investigators
  • forensic investigators in other law-enforcement agencies

Materials
• Students should bring their own laptop running macOS, Linux, or Windows (administrator access is required, within a virtual machine is OK) and containing two USB Type A sockets.
