Practical Binary Analysis is the first book of its kind to present advanced binary analysis topics in an accessible way. After an introduction on the basics of binary formats, disassembly, and code injection, you'll dive into more complex topics such as binary instrumentation, dynamic taint analysis, and symbolic execution. By the end of the book, you'll be able to build your own binary analysis tools on Linux by following hands-on and practical examples.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Dennis Andriesse has put together a book that combines the necessary knowledge and tools enabling the reader to grasp not only the fundamentals of binary analysis, but also to put the newfound knowledge to the test in practical and illustrative examples of binary analysis."
-Sven Dietrich, Cipher: the newsletter of the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Security and Privacy
"This book is...one that deserves the title of deep dive. There is no waste anywhere-just lean, mean, information."
-Full Circle Magazine
"If you want to reverse engineer some code, learn to be a white hat hacker or a black hat hacker then it's well worth reading."
-I Programmer
"Explains the subject in a straightforward and concise way! The author is a very knowledgeable security researcher and his work is state of the art!"
-Nucu Labs
"This book reads like a workshop that teaches readers what tools exist for both Linux and Windows and how to string them together to write tools for reverse engineering binaries . . . if you are well versed in programming, this book will still teach you a good approach at tackling many problems with binary analysis."
-John Skandalakis, Software Engineer, Tripwire
