Workshops/Reverse engineering day
Information for Reverse Engineering Day
There is a hackspace project to reverse engineer the chinese laser cutter software to discover its secrets, and allow us to make something a little bit better. So we are planning on having a day on the 15th of Jan dedicated to all things reverse engineering. It will be a day of code hacking and prodding the binary files generated by the laser cutter software.
There will be also be a couple of talks, for those that wish. I'm doing a beginner's guide to patching with Ollydbg, and Mark is doing something on the differences between the low-level guts of windows and linux.
Things you will Need
If you want to play along.
Will's Demo- Windows system or wine + Ollydbg
Bring food: There will be some number of bacon butties for lunch. Other things will need to be brought along. We have a grill and microwave but no hob
