Discover how our team solves real ECU problems like DTC OFF, EGR delete, IMMO OFF, and boost limit removal with verified case studies across VW, BMW, Ford, and Mercedes.

ReverseEngineer.net is an established platform dedicated to offering premium .NET deobfuscation services. The website was conceptualized in response to the growing need for effective tools and techniques to counteract the complexities introduced by code obfuscation in .NET applications.

We reverse engineered a Denso diesel ECU to preserve map selection across key cycles using EEPROM. This case study shows how we disabled DTC logging, reclaimed memory, and added a reliable firmware patch—no hardware needed.

Unlocking an ECU’s advanced functions often requires defeating its seed-key security challenge. In this in-depth article, we explain what seed-key algorithms are and how they protect vital ECU operations in UDS and KWP2000 protocols. We then dive into reverse engineering techniques to uncover these algorithms – from gathering real seed/key pairs and spotting patterns like XOR masks or bit rotations, to analyzing ECU firmware code to find hidden constants, CRC routines, or even cryptographic computations. Along the way, we outline tools (hex editors, debuggers, emulators) and best practices to safely and efficiently crack the mystery algorithm. Whether you’re an automotive developer, an ECU vendor looking to integrate custom diagnostics, or a reverse-engineering enthusiast, this guide provides a clear roadmap to understanding and breaking ECU seed-key security.

Firmware acts as a crucial intermediary between hardware and software in embedded systems, making it a key focus in embedded systems security research. This article delves into firmware reverse engineering to uncover security vulnerabilities and explains professional analysis techniques to safeguard devices ranging from industrial control systems to consumer electronics.

In this article, which explains Captcha and SSL Pinning Bypass processes in mobile applications, we explain how we bypassed it with tools such as Frida and Burp Suite and how we analyzed application traffic, based on a real project experience. It is a guide for those interested in Android application security!
