Explore reverse engineering techniques in this comprehensive conference talk from OISF 2013. Delve into topics such as source code analysis, binary disassembly, decompilation, and blackbox analysis. Learn about vulnerability discovery, static and dynamic approaches, and obstacles like anti-debugging and virtualization obfuscation. Gain insights into where to apply reverse engineering and understand the importance of tools beyond integrated development environments (IDEs). Discover techniques for handling string analysis and state machines in the context of reverse engineering.
