BlackHat Europe 2026 training

Wed, 20 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This intensive two-day training transforms you into a Bluetooth Low Energy security expert through immersive, hands-on hacking of real-world BLE devices. Forget boring lectures—you’ll spend most of your time exploiting vulnerabilities using cutting-edge tools, including the trainer’s revolutionary open-source BLESPlo.it platform. BLESPlo.it is your new secret weapon: a mobile app paired with an ESP32 device that clones and simulates BLE devices so convincingly they fool official apps. With its physical display, web interface, and dynamic scripting engine, you’ll scan, fingerprint, control, and manipulate BLE communications like never before—often without even touching a keyboard.

Sat, 01 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This intensive two-day training provides a deep dive into Bluetooth Low Energy security, equipping cybersecurity professionals with advanced skills to identify, analyze, and exploit vulnerabilities in BLE devices. The session begins with the foundational exploration on how this technology works by interacting with your dedicated, included device: understanding BLE broadcasting (advertising device presence, trackers, beacons) and connections (services, characteristics, GATT reading/writing/notifications). You will quickly turn on your simulated “lightbulb” and surprisingly - you will already be able to take control over so many devices that do not implement any security mechanisms at all.

Tue, 30 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Bluetooth Low Energy is one of the most common and rapidly growing IoT technologies. We are immersed in surrounding BLE signals: phones, beacons, wearables, TVs, home appliances, toothbrushes, sex toys, light bulbs, smart locks, electric scooters, cars, medical devices, crypto wallets, 2FA, banking tokens, payment terminals - to name just a few. Unfortunately the prevalence of technology does not come with security. Alarming vulnerabilities are revealed day by day – not only in individual devices’ implementations, but also generic: in the Bluetooth specification itself. And yet, the knowledge on how to comprehensively assess security of such devices still remains uncommon. This training aims to fill this gap, with the best possible - hands-on approach.

Bluetooth Low Energy is one of the most exploding IoT technologies. BLE devices surround us more and more – not only as wearables, toothbrushes and sex toys, but also smart locks, medical devices and banking tokens. Alarming vulnerabilities of these devices have been exposed multiple times recently. And yet, the knowledge on how to comprehesively assess their security seems very uncommon. This is probably the most exhaustive and up to date training regarding BLE security – for both pentesters and developers.
