Reverse Engineering.

Catalog description

Reverse engineering focuses on how to understand software without access to its source code. Topics include understanding the design and functionality of software components, recovering software specifications, examining program data, and analyzing software through methods like disassembly and decompilation. Code obfuscation and an exploration of common tools and analysis techniques used in the reverse engineering process will be covered. Prerequisite: CSCI 240 with a C or higher.
