Cybersecurity Consulting Firm – Cyber Castellum
IoT and embedded devices are increasingly deployed in critical environments, healthcare, industrial, and government, yet are rarely subject to security testing. Hardware vulnerabilities can persist for the entire lifespan of a device.
Hardware Security Testing evaluates the physical and firmware-level security of devices including IoT sensors, industrial control systems, embedded devices, networking equipment, and custom hardware. We assess the security of the hardware itself, not just the software running on it, uncovering vulnerabilities that software-only assessments completely miss.
We combine hands-on hardware testing with firmware analysis and reverse engineering to identify vulnerabilities that traditional software security tools may miss. Our security experts assess physical protections, debug interfaces, boot processes, and hardware components to uncover real security risks and help ensure critical devices are protected against hardware-level attacks.
We extract and analyze device firmware to identify vulnerabilities, hidden functionality, and security weaknesses.
We test JTAG and UART interfaces for weaknesses that could provide unauthorized access to device internals.
We assess physical protections and attempt tampering techniques to identify ways attackers could bypass hardware security controls.
We evaluate bootloader security and secure boot mechanisms to identify weaknesses that could allow unauthorized firmware execution.
We assess component authenticity and supply chain integrity to identify risks from counterfeit, modified, or compromised hardware components.
We assess device components, interfaces, and physical access points to identify weaknesses that could be exploited to compromise hardware security.
