despite shit weather #hw_ioNL2023 was an absolute blast! Olivier THOMAS's ROM training was very high quality & super rewarding, excited to apply on ROM scans from my SEM! special greetz to the Chippie Partners, Inc. folks & Siliconinsider for really fun decap/bond workshop & sweet prizes too 🔬




🧩 Solving complications—is what's this for! 🧩 Reverse engineering of integrated circuits, circumventing hardware countermeasures and extracting the data from them. Join our trainer Olivier THOMAS at #hw_ioNL2024 👉 hardwear.io/netherlands-20… #integratedcircuits #hardware #firmware


😁 In fact, the little details by far are the most important when it comes to ROM memories! 💡 Join Olivier THOMAS at #hw_ioUSA2025 to learn how to analyse ROM circuitry and extract scrambling data to reconstruct precise binaries. 👉 hardwear.io/usa-2025/train… #ROM #circuits #RE



Unlocking the Mystical Powers of Hardware Hacking! Silicon hacking seems mystical, but we’re breaking it down! On The Jhacker Show, I talk with Olivier THOMAS about "Inside the Chip–Silicon Hacking & Hardware Backdoors" Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=19_4eF… Plz do subscribe our channel

📂 With GDSII files made public, reverse engineering makes it possible to compare actual #integratedcircuits and detect hidden backdoors Join Olivier THOMAS at #hw_ioUSA2025 to see how mask set comparison is making hardware supply chain security scalable 👉hardwear.io/usa-2025/speak…



Coming to hardwear.io USA? If you plan to follow Texplained 's training on how to dump ROMs from secure chips, there is something you should do: Bring your IC(s) of interest, I will image them in our lab and send you the pictures back! hardwear.io/usa-2025/train…

Like Picking a Lock…But for Microchips 🔓💻 Perfect for reverse engineers, pentesters, and curious minds! Join Olivier THOMAS at #hw_ioUSA2025 to explore real-world scenarios to help you analyze and secure embedded systems. 👉hardwear.io/usa-2025/train… #Cricuits #microchips #ROM #RE


🫣What if chip in your device wasn’t the one you thought was shipped? At #hw_ioUSA2025 Olivier THOMAS showed how reverse engineering & machine learning make it possible to validate the #silicon #supplychain & catch manipulations before they go undetected. 👉youtu.be/srbeubi005U?si…

#ROM memories physically encode data, and with the right tools—you can recover it, even from scrambled layouts. 🧰🤖 Join Olivier THOMAS at #hw_ioNL2025 to learn the techniques to tackle unknown chips, extract binaries, and more. 👉hardwear.io/netherlands-20… #integratedcircuits #RE
