Course Introduction:

Reverse code engineering (RCE) is a vital discipline in the field of software development and cybersecurity, enabling professionals to understand, analyze, and improve existing software systems. This 5-day training course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of reverse engineering techniques, tools, and methodologies. Through a blend of theoretical concepts and real-world applications, attendees will learn how to deconstruct software to uncover its functionality, identify vulnerabilities, and enhance security measures.

Throughout the course, participants will explore various aspects of reverse code engineering, including static and dynamic analysis, disassembly, and debugging. By examining case studies and engaging in discussions on ethical considerations, attendees will gain insights into the practical applications of RCE in software maintenance, security assessments, and malware analysis. This course aims to equip individuals with the skills necessary to leverage reverse engineering as a powerful tool for software improvement and threat detection.

Course Objectives:
