3D Printing is a threat to your keys

Presented at Nuit du Hack 2015, June 20, 2015, 5 p.m. (45 minutes).

The techniques covered in this talk allow an individual to duplicate any key, even with a moveable element, a spring, a flag...

Starting with molding, we are able to duplicate any standard key in a matter of seconds. When it comes to high security keys, manufacturers have implemented specific designs to deter key copying, including using the molding techniques. We have been able to simulate such specific designs in order to still open the targeted locks.

With the increasing precision of 3D printers and the use of Open-source tools, we have been able to design keys in 3D, giving us the possibility to generate almost any key since it has no specific design.

Last but not least, combining the 2 techniques, we are able to create almost any keys, provided it has no magnet or electronic parts.
