Microcontroller Exploits

""This is both a fascinating and profoundly disturbing book. On the fascinating side, it is a cornucopia of great information . . . On the disturbing side, all that great and profoundly useful information is now gathered in one place and presented by a master."" —Richard Austin, IEEE-Cipher (Read More) ""Understanding the pitfalls of microcontroller security is hard, because there are many exquisite and obscure bits of knowledge that must all work together. Before this book, there was only one effective way to learn: talk to a master practitioner like Travis. This book gives a broad and deep survey of the craft, but most importantly it gets the many critical bits in one place, under one cover. I am sure it will become a foundation of many career-changing classes. One day I hope to get good enough to teach one!"" —Sergey Bratus, Distinguished Professor in Cyber Security, Technology, and Society, Dartmouth College  ""We don't have many books focused on such a topic, but face security problems tied to hardware and specifically to microcontrollers every day. Travis's book is foundational to understanding the security problems and how the attackers are going to exploit them. This book is a must-read for every product security team involved in device security."" — Alex Matrosov, CEO and Founder of Binarly ""The book presents an inspiring and much-anticipated collection of microcontroller security vulnerabilities and exploits - presented by Travis himself. All the examples serve as an excellent reference of attack vectors that had often been excluded as being ""out-of-scope"" and ""nobody would do that"" until proven otherwise. This book is very hands-on and a great read for everyone interested in hardware security. I dearly hope that this book will also find its audience amongst chip vendors and especially their teams designing the next generation security architectures."" —Dr. Johannes Obermaier, security engineer and researcher
