<strong>Reverse</strong> engineering plays an important role in security<br />

research. It is most often used for the following:<br />

• Binary patch analysis<br />

• Binary code auditing<br />

• Exploit development<br />

• Interoperability<br />

Recent developments:<br />

• In the last five years reverse engineering tools have matured<br />

• New tools designed specifically for the security community<br />

have been developed (SABRE BinDiff)<br />

• More complicated exploitation techniques (heap overflows,<br />
