Radio Frequency Identification & NFC Research with Proxmark3

Explore the fascinating world of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology! This course provides a comprehensive understanding of these vital technologies, from their historical timeline and evolution to their current applications.

You'll delve into key RFID industry standards and federal regulations set by the FCC, gaining insights into the legal and technical frameworks governing RFID deployments. We'll break down the different RFID typologies, including readers and tags, and clearly differentiate between RFID vs. NFC.

Understand the nuances of different frequency bands: low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), and ultra-high frequency (UHF), and how they impact RFID performance. Trace the evolution of RFID from its origins to today's sophisticated systems.

Crucially, this course equips you with knowledge of RFID vulnerabilities. Learn about potential security risks like cloning, data manipulation, and man-in-the-middle attacks targeting RFID systems.

Get hands-on with Proxmark3, mastering CLI commands for reading, writing, and cloning RFID tags. We'll also explore other popular RFID devices like the Keysy, Flipper Zero, and HackRF in conjunction with GNU Radio. Learn a conceptual model for signal reading, processing, decrypting, and relaying high-frequency RFID tags, specifically focusing on MiFare Classic (ISO 14443).

Discover the key players shaping the RFID landscape: industry leaders, government contractors, protocols, and independent authorities that establish industry precedent.

This course is designed for ethical hackers, cybersecurity researchers, and IT professionals seeking to enhance their signals intelligence capabilities with a strong focus on RFID and NFC security. Develop a deep RFID awareness from a security researcher's perspective.
