ICopy-XS (Advanced Version)

The iCopy-XS is a portable RFID research, reading, writing, and emulation device designed for authorized access-control testing, RFID development, locksmith applications, security research, and contactless-card education. Built around a customized Proxmark3 platform, it supports a wide range of 125kHz, 134kHz, and 13.56MHz RFID technologies in a self-contained handheld format.

This product is available with Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced genuine blank tag packs. All three options include the same full iCopy-XS device; the difference is the assortment of compatible blank cards, tags, and stickers supplied with the package.

Important Package Information

• Advanced: iCopy-XS with the Basic Card Pack and Advanced Card Pack

Please select the package that best matches the RFID technologies you expect to work with. The supplied blank cards are delivered unprinted in white.

Portable RFID Reader, Writer and Emulator

The iCopy-XS combines an integrated RFID system, color screen, physical navigation controls, internal storage, rechargeable battery, and built-in antennas. Common operations can be performed directly from the device without connecting external antennas or carrying a computer.

For advanced analysis, the device can also be connected to a compatible computer through USB-C and used with supported Proxmark client tools.

Low- and High-Frequency RFID Support

The device is designed to work with selected low-frequency and high-frequency RFID technologies, including common access-control cards, key fobs, animal-identification tags, NFC tags, and compatible rewritable test credentials.

• Low frequency: 125kHz and 134kHz
• High frequency: 13.56MHz
• Selected ISO14443A and ISO14443B technologies
• Selected ISO15693 technologies
• Selected MIFARE, NTAG, iCLASS, EM, HID Prox, Indala, T5577, FDX-B, and related formats

Actual compatibility depends on the credential type, security configuration, firmware version, blank tag used, and reader implementation.

Automatic Identification and Copying Workflow

The handheld interface can automatically inspect a supported credential, identify its frequency and technology, read available data, and guide the user through writing an authorized copy to a compatible genuine iCopy-X blank tag.

Previously captured credentials can be stored in the device’s internal memory for later analysis, export, authorized emulation, or creation of additional test copies.

Reading, Scanning and Data Management

• Scan supported credentials to identify their frequency, technology, and UID
• Read available sectors, blocks, and tag information
• Store supported credential dumps in internal memory
• Import and export supported dumps and key files
• Maintain expandable key dictionaries for authorized research
• Write data to compatible genuine iCopy-X blank tags

RFID Emulation

The iCopy-XS can emulate selected low- and high-frequency credentials directly from the handheld device. This allows researchers and security professionals to test reader compatibility, verify access-control configurations, and conduct authorized penetration-testing exercises without repeatedly preparing physical tags.

Traffic Capture and Security Research

Supported MIFARE Classic research functions include capturing authentication exchanges and testing recovered keys in authorized environments. These capabilities are useful for evaluating legacy RFID security, demonstrating protocol weaknesses, and validating access-control migrations.

Proxmark Mode for Advanced Users

When connected through USB-C, advanced users can access the integrated Proxmark3 platform using compatible client software. This provides additional commands for signal analysis, protocol identification, demodulation, sniffing, emulation, and RFID development beyond the simplified standalone interface.

Genuine Blank Tag Requirement

The simplified standalone copying functions are designed for genuine iCopy-X blank credentials. Generic blank cards, tags, or fobs may not be recognized or written correctly. Use the appropriate blank type for the source credential and selected operation.

Important Compatibility Limitations

• MIFARE DESFire credentials are not supported by the automatic copying workflow.
• EMV payment and bank cards are not supported.
• Some customized iCLASS credentials may not be supported.
• iCLASS SE and SEOS workflows require a compatible optional decoder accessory.
• The device cannot guarantee compatibility with every access-control system or anti-copy implementation.

Typical Applications

• Authorized RFID access-control assessments
• Locksmith and credential-management services
• RFID and NFC protocol research
• Red-team and penetration-testing engagements
• Card and reader compatibility testing
• Cybersecurity and university laboratory exercises
• RFID system migration and configuration validation
• Proxmark3-based advanced research

Responsible Use Notice

The iCopy-XS is intended for RFID development, education, professional credential services, and authorized security testing. Use it only with cards, tags, readers, and systems that you own or have explicit permission to test. Copying credentials or accessing protected systems without authorization may be illegal.
