Inside the black epoxy.

Every cartridge and toner bottle hides a tiny authentication die under a drop of opaque resin. It counts, it signs, it refuses. Our division exists to learn exactly how — and to publish what the world is allowed to know.

Side-channel analysis

Power & timing traces to recover keys the die never means to reveal.

Fault injection

Voltage & clock glitching to walk logic past the checks it guards.

Protocol reversal

Bus captures mapped into full vendor handshakes across six families.

Clone-resistant reset

Making refills survive the firmware updates designed to kill them.
