Reverse Engineering Masterclass — Hands‑On Binary & Malware Analysis

Gain practical reverse engineering skills: disassembly, debugging, binary exploitation, and malware analysis with industry tools and labs.

Course overview

This Masterclass teaches step-by-step techniques to analyze compiled binaries, unpack and deobfuscate malware, perform static and dynamic analysis, and understand exploitation fundamentals. Labs use real-world examples and common industry tools like Ghidra, IDA, radare2, and debuggers.

What this course covers

• Fundamentals of assembly (x86/x64) and calling conventions

• Static analysis: disassembly, control-flow, and data-flow analysis

• Dynamic analysis: debuggers, instrumentation, and hooking

• Reverse engineering protected/obfuscated binaries and unpacking techniques

• Malware analysis basics: behavioral analysis, sandboxing, and IOC extraction

• Binary exploitation introduction: buffer overflows, format strings, and ROP basics

• Tools: Ghidra, IDA Pro, radare2, x64dbg, strace/ltrace, and forensic utilities

• Responsible disclosure, ethics, and legal considerations

Who this is for

• Security researchers and malware analysts

• CTF players and vulnerability researchers

• Software developers wanting deeper binary understanding

• Students preparing for security roles or competitions

Key features

• Hands-on labs with reproducible VM images (use only authorized downloads)

• Step-by-step walkthroughs from beginner-level to advanced techniques

• Challenge exercises and walkthroughs for real-world skill building
