<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Beginning with a basic primer on reverse engineering-including computer internals, operating systems, and assembly language-and then discussing the various<br /> applications of reverse engineering, this book provides readers with practical, in-depth techniques for software reverse engineering. The book is broken into two parts, the first deals with security-related reverse engineering and the second explores the more practical aspects of reverse engineering. In addition, the author explains how to reverse engineer a third-party software library to improve interfacing and how to reverse engineer a competitor's software to build a better product.<br /> * The first popular book to show how software reverse engineering can help defend against security threats, speed up development, and unlock the secrets of competitive products<br /> * Helps developers plug security holes by demonstrating how hackers exploit reverse engineering techniques to crack copy-protection schemes and identify software targets for viruses and other malware<br /> * Offers a primer on advanced reverse-engineering, delving into disassembly-code-level reverse engineering-and explaining how to decipher assembly language<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><b>Sometimes, the best way to advance</b><i> is in reverse</i> <p>If you want to know how something works, you take it apart very carefully. That's exactly what this book shows you--how to deconstruct software in a way that reveals design and implementation details, sometimes even source code. Why? Because reversing reveals weak spots, so you can target your security efforts. Because you can reverse- engineer malicious code in order to neutralize it. Because understanding what makes a program work lets you build a better one. You'll learn how here. <ul> <li><b>Learn to read compiler-generated assembly language code for IA-32 compatible processors</b></li> <li><b>Decipher an undocumented file format or network protocol</b></li> <li><b>Understand when reverse engineering is legal, and when --and why--it may not be</b></li> <li><b>See how hackers use reversing to defeat copy protection technology</b></li> <li><b>Find out how to pull the plug on malicious code</b></li> <li><b>Determine how to prevent others from reversing your code, and find out how effective such steps can be</b></li> <li><b>Explore reverse engineering on the .NET platform and its assembly language, MSIL</b></li> <li><b>Observe the dissection of a real-world malicious program and see how the attacker used it to control infected systems</b></li> </ul> <p><b>Companion Web site</b></br> Visit www.wiley.com/go/eeilam for a complete list of the sample programs in the book and links to valuable papers and products.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Eldad Eilam</b> is a consultant in the field of reverse engineering. He assists clients with operating system and in-depth software reverse engineering, and has devoted several years to developing advanced reverse engineering techniques.
