Hardware Hacking

Responsible and Ethical Disclosure

Any work that we do under our hardware hacking will follow the principals whereby, to be a viable target, we must physically own it and it must not be in use. After this any vulnerabilities found will follow the well established "Coordinate Vulnerability Disclosure" [1], also used by Google Project Zero to provide a:

90-day disclosure deadline which starts after notifying vendors of vulnerability, with details shared in public with the defensive community after 90 days, or sooner if the vendor releases a fix
