Lab & Projects - Inside the Build Room

See where the real work happens.
At Hack n Back Tech, every tool we sell is battle-tested in our own custom-built labs. From early prototypes to advanced testing environments, this page shows the research, the builds, and the field testing behind our gear — all run by real hackers, not suits.

๐Ÿงช Inside the Build Room: Where Hack n Back Tech Comes to Life

Welcome to the Hack n Back Tech lab — the brainspace where concept turns into code, and tools are forged in real-time.

The image above captures a live snapshot of our main testing and development setup. From software scripting to hardware debugging, this is the command center where every Hack n Back device begins its journey.


๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Multi-Screen Setup

Our triple-monitor workstation allows rapid context switching between web-based interfaces, device serial output, and platform development. With a mix of vertical and wide-screen displays, we streamline scripting, firmware testing, and documentation simultaneously.


๐Ÿ”ง Key Tools on the Desk

  • GhostKey (Open Form):
    Seen on the right in open-board mode, GhostKey is our upcoming all-in-one RFID/NFC toolkit. Fully operational even without a case, it's undergoing final stage testing and feature tuning before product release.

  • NOVA-RF Prototype:
    Positioned near the rear monitor, NOVA-RF is our touchscreen-powered wireless testing platform. It supports multiple wireless protocols and is built for field-ready operations with a custom GUI.

  • Oversized “Brew King” Mug:
    Because caffeine is as essential as code. Enough said.

  • Dual Keyboard Workflow:
    One mechanical (for high-speed dev work), one wireless (for flexible system switching) — ideal for controlling both the dev machine and headless test units.

  • Everyday Electronics:
    Debugging tools, USB testers, dev boards, and interface modules are always within reach — enabling real-time hardware modification, soldering, and integration testing.


โš™๏ธ Current Projects Under Testing

  • GhostKey – RFID read/write, UID spoofing, dump + brute tools

  • NOVA-RF – Full touchscreen pentest console (Pi powered)


๐Ÿ’ฌ A Lab Built for Makers

This lab is more than wires and screens — it’s the manifestation of the Hack n Back philosophy: make it work, then make it yours. Every device we ship is tested, flashed, and refined here before going into your hands.

๐Ÿ‘ป GhostKey – Sneak Peek

GhostKey is Hack n Back Tech’s upcoming self-contained RFID/NFC hacking toolkit — built for serious operators who want fast, clean, and effective access to RFID testing tools without extra fluff.

Currently in active testing on a Pi Zero 2 WH, GhostKey runs completely headless with a lightweight WebUI interface, making it perfect for stealthy field work, remote access, or lab-based exploitation — no touchscreen, no sound, just raw capability through your browser.


๐Ÿ”“ Core Features

  • โœ… Web-Based Interface
    No display required. Access GhostKey from your phone or laptop via local Wi-Fi.

  • โœ… Live Tag Detection
    Real-time UID capture and display via the WebUI.

  • โœ… Read / Write / Clone
    Dump, clone, and emulate supported RFID tags — including MIFARE Classic.

  • โœ… Key Dictionary & Bruteforce (in development)
    Crack weak keys using predefined dictionaries or raw bruteforce attacks.

  • โœ… Export Logs
    Capture logs and dumps directly to your device via browser download.


๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Current Status

GhostKey is running flawlessly in open prototype form with full terminal control and WebUI access. Final release will include a streamlined setup script, downloadable image, and optional case files for custom prints.


๐ŸŽฏ Designed For:

  • RFID/NFC pentesting

  • Physical security audits

  • Covert tag inspection and dump

  • Offensive cybersecurity research


๐Ÿงช Tested Hardware:

  • Pi Zero 2 WH

  • Elechouse PN532 (SPI mode)

  • Standalone power via USB

  • Wi-Fi hotspot with browser UI


๐Ÿš€ Coming Soon

GhostKey will be available as a standalone kit and as part of the upcoming AirBreak Suite — a bundle of custom wireless tools from Hack n Back Tech.
