How can I do that? Intro to hardware hacking with an RFID badge reader

DerbyCon 3.0 - All In The Family

Presented by: Kevin Bong
Date: Sunday September 29, 2013
Time: 12:00 - 12:50
Location: Track 3
Track: Teach Me

Description:Hardware hacking can be intimidating for hobbyist hackers, but it doesn’t need to be. This talk shares some basic hardware hacking tools and techniques you can combine with a “figure it out as you go” attitude to start doing your own hardware enhancements without an engineering background. Kevin will teach these concepts through a real world example – how to inspect the workings of a $12 RFID lock off Ebay and turn it into an RFID snooper for EM400 and HID cards.
