Reverse Engineering focuses on analyzing compiled binaries, software behavior, and file structures to understand how systems work, discover vulnerabilities, or dissect malware. This category includes static and dynamic analysis, disassembly, debugging, and tools like Ghidra, IDA Pro, Binary Ninja, and radare2. Whether for vulnerability research, malware analysis, or software modification, reverse engineering plays a critical role in low-level offensive security work.
