Ghidra Software Reverse-Engineering for Beginners Master the art of debugging

Key FeaturesMake the most of Ghidra on different platforms such as Linux, Windows, and macOSUnlock the potential of plug-ins and extensions for disassembly, assembly, decompilation, and scriptingLearn advanced concepts like binary diffing, debugging, unpacking real-world malware samples, and reverse engineering ransomwareBook Description
Written by David Álvarez Pérez, a senior malware analyst at Gen Digital Inc., and Ravikant Tiwari, a senior security researcher at Microsoft, with expertise in malware and threat detection, this book is a complete guide to using Ghidra for examining malware, making patches, and customizing its features for your cybersecurity needs.
This updated edition walks you through implementing Ghidra's capabilities and automating reverse-engineering tasks with its plugins. You'll learn how to set up an environment for practical malware analysis, use Ghidra in headless mode, and leverage Ghidra scripting to automate vulnerability detection in executable binaries. Advanced topics such as creating Ghidra plugins, adding new binary formats, analyzing processor modules, and contributing to the Ghidra project are thoroughly covered too.
This edition also simplifies complex concepts such as remote and kernel debugging and binary diffing, and their practical uses, especially in malware analysis. From unpacking malware to analyzing modern ransomware, you'll acquire the skills necessary for handling real-world cybersecurity challenges.
By the end of this Ghidra book, you'll be adept at avoiding potential vulnerabilities in code, extending Ghidra for advanced reverse-engineering, and applying your skills to strengthen your cybersecurity strategies.
