iFixit started in a Cal Poly dorm room in 2003, when our founders took apart a broken iBook and realized there was no good information online about how to fix it. They documented the process, put it online, and that grew into what is now a global repair community.

Today, iFixit provides free, open-access repair guides, teardowns, and troubleshooting resources for everything from phones and laptops to game consoles and small electronics. The content is built and maintained by a worldwide community, making it one of the largest repair knowledge bases available.

We also design and sell tools and replacement parts to support those repairs. The goal has always been simple: make it easier for people to fix their own stuff.

We’re active in the Right to Repair movement and regularly support hands-on learning through workshops, events, and partnerships with schools and makerspaces.

At its core, iFixit is about understanding how things work and making repair more accessible.

The origins of Red Team Tools extends back over a half a decade prior to the existence of our web site. As early members of the locksport community and board members of TOOOL – the Open Organisation of Lockpickers – Deviant and Babak spent over a decade spreading knowledge, building community, educating the public, and providing tools to hobbyists and professionals alike.

As security professionals specializing in covert entry and other forms of non-destructive entry, they were disappointed by the large gap that appeared to exist between the hobbyist world and the growing field of professional red teaming. The lack of tooling for field applications presented numerous day-to-day challenges, and a solution was needed.

In addition to in-house design and manufacturing work, Babak and Deviant drew from resources in both the hacker world and the professional security industry to build relationships with specialized vendors and partners. Since their formation, Deviant and his crew at Red Team Tools have designed and released over two dozen custom products of their own creation, bringing innovation and improvement to the physical penetration and covert entry field. One of the key principles of RTT is Deviant’s commitment to releasing as many of his designs as possible for free on his GitHub page so that community members can make their own tools for free, remix the designs, and share ongoing feedback and improvement in order to uplift the community and drive our industry forward.
