// OVERVIEW.01COURSE_DESCRIPTION
What This Course Covers
Take your binary reverse engineering skills into embedded systems. This masterclass covers disassembling stripped C/C++ binaries, identifying memory corruptions, stack overflows in embedded daemons, and developing proof-of-concept exploits on non-x86 hardware architectures.
Ideal For: Experienced security researchers, firmware engineers, and advanced binary analysts.
// OUTCOMES.02PRACTICAL_SKILLS_GAINED
