Publisher's Synopsis
Reactive Publishing
Unlock the secrets of compiled software with the most versatile tool in your programming arsenal-Python. This hands-on guide takes you deep into the world of reverse engineering, where code is broken down, analyzed, and rebuilt to reveal its true inner workings.
Whether you're a cybersecurity analyst, software developer, or hacker at heart, this book teaches you how to disassemble executables, analyze bytecode, decode obfuscated logic, and understand proprietary software. With step-by-step Python implementations, you'll master essential techniques like:
Static and dynamic binary analysis
Bytecode introspection and patching
Decompiling and reconstructing logic flow
Malware unpacking and behavioral forensics
API hooking and DLL injection
Writing custom tools with capstone, radare2, uncompyle6, frida, and more
Reverse Engineering with Python bridges the gap between theory and practical application-offering real-world examples, exercises, and use cases across Windows, Linux, and mobile binaries.
Rebuild what's broken. Decode what's hidden. Understand what was never meant to be understood.
