It feels good to be back into reverse engineering.
I realized I stopped doing this around 2009, back when I was using tools like SoftICE, OllyDbg, IDAPro, BinDiff, Hiew, and others to work through crackmes, understand software protections, and sharpen my reverse-engineering skills.
Many years later, I’m picking it up again with Ghidra and WinDbg. Before moving into AI-assisted analysis with GhidraMCP, as shared by my friend Master Jay Turla, I want to refresh my manual reversing skills first.
This time, however, the goal goes beyond crackmes and software protection. I want to apply reverse engineering to security vulnerability research—understanding binaries, analyzing how vulnerabilities occur, and eventually identifying them myself.
Back to the basics. Back to the binaries. 🔎💻
Let's see where this journey takes me.
