Overview
Explore the fascinating world of wireless communication hacking and reverse engineering in this Black Hat conference talk. Discover how to communicate with NASA space probes, spoof restaurant pager systems, and build your own bistatic RADAR system using airport surveillance equipment. Delve into the intricacies of RFID systems used in toll booths, building security, and vehicular keyless entry. Learn about steganographic image printing on the radio spectrum and techniques for dominating the RF spectrum through blind signal analysis. Gain insights into reverse engineering RF communications systems using open source software and affordable radio hardware. Understand how long-term radio data gathering can crack poorly-implemented encryption schemes like the Radio Data Service's Traffic Message Channel. Explore satellite communications, aircraft tracking using Mode S, real-time 3D airspace visualization, and monitoring aircraft health with ACARS. Learn to hunt down interfering clandestine radio transmissions and bring your own SDR equipment to enhance the experience.
