#REcon2023

I'm excited to announce that I'll be presenting my talk, "Unveiling Secrets in Binaries using Code Detection Strategies" at REcon Montreal 2023 (@recon)! This talk explores the challenges reverse engineers face when navigating large, unknown binaries and introduces a range of efficient, architecture-agnostic heuristics for quickly detecting key code locations in real-world applications.

During the presentation, I'll demonstrate how these innovative heuristics can identify cryptographic algorithms, complex state machines in firmware, and string decryption routines in malware. Additionally, we'll delve into detecting API functions in statically-linked executables and uncovering obfuscated code in commercial applications. These powerful techniques are based on code complexity metrics and statistical analysis, making them applicable to a wide array of reverse engineering scenarios.

For those interested in diving deeper into the world of software protection and how to break them, I'll also be conducting a hands-on training session on "Software Deobfuscation Techniques." More details and sign-up information for the training can be found here: https://recon.cx/2023/trainingSoftwareDeobfuscationTechniques.html

Check out the full details of my talk at the conference page: https://recon.cx/2023/presentations.html and stay tuned for more updates coming soon!
