Cybersecurity threats are constantly evolving, and the ability to understand how malware operates is one of the most in-demand skills in the IT and security industry. Reverse Engineering & Malware Analysis: From Basics to Advanced Techniques provides a structured and practical pathway for learners who want to build expertise in reverse engineering and malware analysis.

The course begins with a foundation in cybersecurity concepts, including firewalls, VPNs, DMZ, and Windows security essentials, before moving into malware identification and persistence techniques. Learners will gain hands-on experience using industry tools to detect and analyze malicious programs, while understanding how attackers exploit system vulnerabilities.

A major part of this course is dedicated to reverse engineering principles. You will explore CPU execution, low-level programming, and assembly concepts to understand how compiled code is transformed and executed. Through guided lessons, you will also learn Linux for malware analysis, including file permissions, process management, log analysis, and networking essentials, ensuring you have a strong technical foundation for real-world malware research.

To bridge programming knowledge with reverse engineering, the course introduces C and C++ basics, enabling you to compare high-level code with machine instructions. You will then advance to practical reverse engineering, analyzing how malware interacts with networks, filesystems, and operating systems. By the end, you will have the technical confidence and practical skill set to dissect malware, strengthen security systems, and contribute to cyber defense strategies.
