hi I'm Kevin Poulsen first threat level

Christopher turn knobs key is a hacker

who specializes in hacking smart cards

he was so good at this that he was

actually hired by a company that makes

smart cards for the satellite TV

industry to help them secure their

systems from satellite pirates he's now

working independently as a contractor

and last week he opened up his San Diego

laboratory exclusively to wired.com in

order to show us his latest technique

for circumventing the physical security

that protects smart cards from hackers

in the first place so today what we're

going to do is we're going to take out

this piece of metal we're gonna remove

it we're going to expose it to some

acids the first phase is going to remove

the epoxy and actually expose the chip
