The Problem

Hardware security training still does not scale.

Most cybersecurity training moved online. Hardware security did not. Equipment, setup complexity, and lab access still limit who can teach it and who can practice it.

The Solution

Cloud-accessible labs on real hardware.

We pool instrumented devices, manage access and orchestration centrally, and support beginner-to-advanced hardware security labs through the browser.

Platform

Two layers. One seamless system.

Instrumented hardware nodes at the edge. A cloud orchestration layer above. Together they deliver real hardware security capacity on demand.

Instrumented Hardware Nodes

Highly integrated development boards instrumented for beginner to advanced hardware security experiments on real devices.

Cloud Orchestration Layer

Session scheduling, node allocation, and reset flows managed through a cloud control plane.

JupyterLab Experiment Interface

Notebook-first workflows for job design, measurement, and analysis, all accessible from the browser.

Instructor Operations Console

Real-time cohort visibility, engagement analytics, and troubleshooting tools at program scale.

Shared Capacity Model

Shared hardware utilization across sessions and institutions, increasing throughput and lowering cost.

Ecosystem Integration

Built for LMS connectivity, certifications, and shared lab content.

Recognition

NSF-backed. Built for institutional pilots.

HaCKSEE has secured more than $1M in federal and state support across research, validation, and commercialization work. The June 2025 NSF award is the most recent grant backing the current platform effort.
