Dynamic Binary Visualization for Reverse Engineering

Sébastien Duquette · Talk · YouTube title: REcon 2013 - The Future of RE : Dynamic Binary Visualization (Christopher Domas)
Why it's here

HN commenters say it permanently changed how they think about inspecting binary data, and point to it as the origin of visual binary analysis tools.

What it covers

Christopher Domas's REcon 2013 talk on dynamic binary visualization for reverse engineering. He shows how rendering binary data as interactive visual maps and trigraphs reveals structure that hex dumps hide, leading to his Cantor.dust tool.
