Reversing: Secrets Of Reverse Engineering

0.0

Hacker's Guide to Reverse Engineering begins with a basic primer on reverse engineering, including computer internals, operating systems, and assembly language. From there, readers will be taken through various applications of reverse engineering. These applications, which comprise the core of the book, are presented in two parts. The first part deals with security-related reverse engineering. The following part deals with the more practical aspects of the trade - reverse engineering for software developers. Throughout the text, the author covers the legal aspects of what he is demonstrating. The final part of the book provides an in-depth guide to disassembly (or “code-level reverse engineering”). About The Author Eldad Eilam is a consultant specializing in operating systems research and in-depth software reverse engineering on behalf of various clients. He has also been teaching in the reverse engineering and operating systems internals fields for several years.
