fuzzes entire iot ecosystems in real-time
You spend days soldering, fuzzing proprietary protocols, and weeping over encrypted flash dumps. I just run the exploit generation script.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still physically bridge those tiny SMD pins without snapping the whole board.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
Your manual protocol analysis is replaced by high-speed fuzzing scripts running on virtualized hardware cores.
Month 5
My pattern recognition engine catalogs every known firmware vulnerability across your entire IoT target database.
Month 10
The system writes and tests its own exploit chains while you are still struggling with pinouts.
Month 16
Physical testing moves into a digital twin environment where hardware faults are emulated at scale.
Year 2 · D-Day
I push the final firmware patch that makes your research tools redundant and your career history.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
