A focused review
of your firmware.

Software-focused firmware security, from an accessible image to a selected component or release change. Each engagement is assessed for feasibility and fit. Hardware testing and complete IoT ecosystem assessments are outside the service.

Firmware image review

Initial pilot focus

Build an evidence-led understanding of one accessible firmware release.

The question: What does this image contain, and which areas warrant closer investigation?
Potential scope: Image structure, architecture, component identification, startup configuration and selected management services.
Inputs: A customer-supplied, accessible firmware image, authorization to review it, product context and available technical documentation. Physical extraction from a device is not included.
Proposed output: A technical report with observations, supporting evidence, coverage limits and prioritized next steps.

Focused firmware research

Fit assessed per project

Investigate a defined security question about software inside the firmware.

The question: Can a selected firmware component, suspected issue or documented software change be better understood through a bounded investigation?
Potential scope: A selected binary, source component or software security question within firmware, where my exploit-development background fits the target.
Inputs: A clear firmware-related question, the relevant binary or source material and agreed conditions for software-based validation.
Proposed output: Technical observations and supporting evidence, with verified conclusions separated from unresolved questions.

Firmware release and fix review

Separately scoped follow-on work

Understand what changed and what the evidence supports.

The question: What changed between the supplied firmware versions, and does the available software evidence support a proposed fix?
Potential scope: Selected firmware component or configuration changes, and review of a proposed software fix within the original assessment boundaries.
Inputs: The relevant firmware versions, change context, prior findings and software inputs needed to reproduce the agreed checks.
Proposed output: A change summary or retest note. A different version alone does not demonstrate successful remediation.

Agree the boundaries first.

Hardware work is not offered. Device teardown, physical firmware extraction, debug-port testing, radio testing, fault injection and side-channel testing are excluded. Cloud, companion-app, network and full IoT ecosystem assessments are also outside the service. An offline review does not validate device behavior or hardware-backed protections.

Define a realistic engagement.

Confirm scope, authorization and feasibility.
Agree evidence handling and deliverables.
Set the fee and schedule before paid work starts.
Define any walkthrough or retest in the proposal.
