Description:

Major states/cities in India has metro railway system for easy commute. The technology is, _however_, been exploited for a long period of time. I'll go through what's wrong with current system and how to make profit out of it.

Note: The talk is majorly about NFC (majorly, MiFare DESFire EV1 cards & classic cards). Keep in mind that this is not a NFC 101. I barely understand NFC due to lack of documentation, I just know enough to make profit out of it. I'll go through the ideas that floated in my mind during this hacking journey and also all the issues that I fell into.
