### Understanding What You Can't See in Source Code
Not all threats live in source code. Proprietary firmware, third-party binaries, legacy
systems, and compiled applications hide vulnerabilities that only reverse engineering can
reveal. Whether you're validating a vendor's security claims or analyzing malware, we
dissect binaries down to assembly.
### What We Analyze
**Firmware & Embedded Binaries**
- Bootloaders and firmware images
- BIOS/UEFI and embedded controllers
- IoT device firmware
- Industrial controller (PLC/RTU) firmware
**Application Binaries**
- Windows PE executables and DLLs
- Linux ELF binaries and shared objects
- Mobile applications (Android APK, iOS IPA)
- Proprietary file formats and protocols
**Hardware-Software Interface**
- Driver analysis and kernel modules
- Hypervisor and virtualization components
- Secure enclaves and trusted execution environments
- Hardware security modules (HSM) interfaces
**Malware & Threat Analysis**
- Advanced persistent threat (APT) analysis
- Ransomware and trojan dissection
- Rootkit and bootkith detection
- Command & control (C2) protocol reverse engineering
### Our Methodology
**Static Analysis**
- Disassembly and decompilation (IDA Pro, Ghidra, Binary Ninja)
- Control flow and data flow analysis
- String and constant extraction
- Cryptographic algorithm identification
- Vulnerability pattern recognition
**Dynamic Analysis**
- Debugger-based analysis (GDB, WinDbg, LLDB)
- System call tracing and monitoring
- Memory dump analysis
- Network traffic analysis during execution
- Sandbox and isolated environment testing
**Code Reconstruction**
- Pseudo-code generation
- Algorithm and logic reconstruction
- API and system call mapping
- Documentation of undocumented features
- Proof-of-concept development
### Deliverables
- Comprehensive reverse engineering report
- Annotated disassembly or decompiled code
- Vulnerability analysis and risk assessment
- Indicators of compromise (IoCs) if malware
- Remediation or mitigation recommendations
- Technical briefing and knowledge transfer
### Ideal For
- Defense contractors validating third-party components
- OEMs analyzing competitor products (legally)
- Incident response teams analyzing malware
- Product security teams validating vendor claims
- Forensics investigations
- Legacy system security assessments
