“This likely would be done by using a hot air gun and a scalpel to remove the plastic key casing and expose the part of the logic board that acts as a secure element storing the cryptographic secrets.

Once the measurement-taking is finished, the attacker would seal the chip in a new casing and return it to the victim.” Crime is hard 😭😭
