2 weeks before @reconmtl starts!
⚡From June 15–18 in Montreal, @reivilo_t will deliver the training “Advanced IC Reverse Engineering & Data Extraction” at REcon 2026.

+ Olivier's Talk on “ROM Dump, Descrambling and Decryption using RE Only: the Fully Analytical MEthod (FAME)”

Wrapping up @hardwear_io training “IC RE: ROM is your primary target”
Interested in analytical ROM extraction techniques? 👇@reivilo_t gives a Talk at @reconmtl (June 20) “ROM Dump, Descrambling and Decryption using RE Only: the Fully Analytical MEthod (FAME), no FIB, no Guesses”

[Texplained @Texplained_RE]

🚀 We’re kicking off at @hardwear_io !
Texplained starts its training: “IC RE: ROM is your primary target”. Until Thu 28th, participants will explore ICs and why ROM is a key entry point for firmware analysis, digital forensics & security research.
Next stops: REcon & Codegate

Florine joined Texplained with a business background — and quickly realized that understanding the technical side of IC Reverse Engineering was key to integrate a team of Hackers. 😎

@reivilo_t will be at REcon 2026:

🎤 Talk: “ROM Dump, Descrambling and Decryption using RE Only: the Fully Analytical MEthod (FAME), no FIB, no Guesses…” (60 minutes)

📚 Training: “Advanced IC Reverse Engineering & Data Extraction” (15 - 18 June)

[hardwear.io @hardwear_io]

How do you actually extract data from a chip?

At https://t.co/PVi7u42saj USA 2026, this training focuses on ROM often the primary target in transistor-level security analysis and how it can be used as a starting point for integrated circuit reverse engineering.

Attackers don’t always hack systems.
Sometimes they just read what people leave behind. 👀
OSINT turns photos, metadata, weak passwords & oversharing into access.
In hardware security, silence is part of defense.
Here are the basics too many still forget ↓

We’re flying to Asia 🌏

For the first time, Texplained will deliver its Advanced IC Reverse Engineering & Data Extraction training at CODEGATE 2026 in Seoul 🇰🇷 (July 21–23).

Excited to connect with the hardware security community!

[Texplained @Texplained_RE]

Between code and silicon, there’s a world we rarely talk about. Firmware isn’t just code — it becomes electrical signals, physical behavior.
Hardware RE flips the perspective: we don’t read code, we read what it does.💾

🔍🤔 Ever zoomed into a chip and thought, “There’s data in there somewhere?”

Join @reivilo_t at #hw_ioUSA2026 to learn how ROM circuitry works, how scrambling is implemented, and how to recover the original data.
