Last updated 4 days ago

This page is a free and open-source wiki about hardware hacking!

The goal of HardBreak (https://www.hardbreak.wiki/) is to collect
knowledge about Hardware Hacking / IoT hacking in one place. There
are many great blogs about Hardware Hacking, but it is a rather
unpleasant experience to search through multiple blogs in different
formats to find the information you need. HardBreak aims to organize
all information in one accessible and easy-to-use platform.

 
Discord

 We just launched our HardBreak Discord Server! 

Join us here  https://discord.gg/AWVsKxJHvQ

If you:
