Research Tools - Stripe Snoop is THE tool for research. It includes a raw mode to allow for reading and attempted parsing of non-standard track information (such as NYC's Metrocard). It support for different readers is growing, allowing for different readers to use the same standard interface. It comes with extras tools that allow for the bitstreams to be captured, modified, and exported. This exported data can be analyzed on a different machine running Stripe Snoop, with no reader necessary! This allows for researchers around the world to trade magstripe data and research with each other without needing their own readers, or without shipping the actual card.
