Summary
Software Reverse Engineering (SRE) is integral to cybersecurity, with applications in vulnerabilities research, malware analysis, penetration testing, and more. A declassified version of NSA’s SRE framework, Ghidra, was released publicly in 2019, and has become one of the preeminent tools among SRE practitioners. This session will guide students through a series of SRE challenges that they will solve using Ghidra. The challenges span a range of difficulty levels, from introductory to advanced. Discussion will cover SRE principles and practices, with potential to delve into more specialized topics according to student interest.
