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.
🧪 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.
🖥️ 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.
🔧 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.
⚙️ Current Projects Under Testing
-
GhostKey – RFID read/write, UID spoofing, dump + brute tools
-
NOVA-RF – Full touchscreen pentest console (Pi powered)
💬 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.
👻 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.
🔓 Core Features
-
✅ Web-Based Interface
No display required. Access GhostKey from your phone or laptop via local Wi-Fi. -
✅ Live Tag Detection
Real-time UID capture and display via the WebUI. -
✅ Read / Write / Clone
Dump, clone, and emulate supported RFID tags — including MIFARE Classic. -
✅ Key Dictionary & Bruteforce (in development)
Crack weak keys using predefined dictionaries or raw bruteforce attacks. -
✅ Export Logs
Capture logs and dumps directly to your device via browser download.
🛠️ 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.
