RFID: Soup to Nuts

Adam Laurie

Abstract

This course will cover everything from basic theory of how RFID works 'under the hood', to actual use cases and current exploits and tools.

Topics covered:

  • LF (125/134 kHz) theory & practice: Modulation schemes, Tag types, reading, writing, emulating, cracking.
  • HF (13.56 MHz) theory & practice: Modulation schemes, Tag types, reading, writing, emulating, cracking.
  • RFID crypto: Some worked examples of implementations and where they went wrong. e.g. Passports, DESFire Access Control, Mifare payments, Hitag2 vehicle keys.

Who should attend:
Anyone interested in RFID, whether they have a basic knowledge or none at all, will come away with a better understanding of how this stuff really works, and useful 'hands-on' experience of RFID hacking.

What should they bring:
Students should bring a laptop with USB and DVD drive. Most tools work best under Linux, but many are multi-platform so can be run under Windows or Mac. Students should be prepared to install drivers and/or software, or to run a pre-packaged distribution such as Kali.RFID readers, example cards and other devices will be provided.

[Schedule] 2 Days(09:00-18:00)

Adam "Major Malfunction" Laurie is the author of the open source RFID python library 'RFIDIOt' (http://rfidiot.org), which is widely used by the hacking and research community, and comes pre-installed on distributions such as Backtrack/Kali. He is also responsible for many of the breakthrough 'hacks' on RFID devices, such as credit cards, access control systems and passports, and has a working knowledge of implementation as well as theory. His company, Aperture Labs Ltd., have recently launched a Kickstarter project to create a Software Defined RFID reader 'RFIDler'.
