How to choose Reverse Engineering Tools for CNC Machining?

Regarding reverse engineering product design, we have mentioned before. What tools are required for reverse engineering? This article mainly introduces some tools of reverse engineering, I hope you can help.

What is reverse engineering?

We talked about what reverse engineering is before, here we briefly talk about it. Simply put, reverse engineering product design is the process of pushing out product design data (including various design drawings or data models) based on existing products. In this sense, reverse engineering has been used in industrial design for a long time. For example, the hull lofting design commonly used in the early shipbuilding industry is a good example of reverse engineering.

The best software reverse engineering tool-which reverse engineering tool to choose?

1.Hiew- an ultimate witchcraft editor & Deasembler

Hiew is more than just a hex editor. It allows you to modify any binary file, but it also comes with a built-in disassembler for x86/x64/ARM code, as well as support for WindowsPE EXE format and LinuxELF.

2. Ghidra is a framework for software reverse engineering (S.R.E.). Developed by the National Security Agency’s Research Bureau for the National Security Agency’s cybersecurity mission. It helps to analyze dangerous code and malicious software (such as viruses), and can help network security professionals better understand potential vulnerabilities in their networks and systems. It supports a collection of different process instruction sets and executable formats, and can be run interactively or automatically. In addition, the application can be modified through Python or Java plug-ins or scripts.

3. Peid is an intuitive application that relies on a user-friendly interface to detect PE wrappers, ciphers and compilers in executable files. Its detection rate is higher than other similar tools because the application contains more than 600 different signatures in the PE file.

4.dnSpy-.NET ultimate tool

This is the best reverse engineering tool for any .NET binary file, and one of the best tools of the past decade. Excellent design, frequent updates, support for any analysis related to .NET code (decompiler, rebuilder, editor).

5. X64dbg is an open source Windows binary debugger for malware analysis and reverse engineering of executable files. This is the new king of the Windows debugger. The old days have passed for a long time. The debugging software on the Windows platform complies with the new standard. Independent versions of 32-bit and 64-bit software, a large number of plugins, visual themes and ongoing upgrades.

6. Ida Pro is one of the most widely used reverse engineering software tools. It is an interactive disassembler with an integrated command language (IDC) that supports various executable formats on various processors and operating systems. Ida is an all-in-one tool. It is a disassembler for many binary file formats (PE, ELF, MACHO, etc.), with a built-in decompiler, hexadecimal editor, and debugger.

7. BinaryNinja, a Vector 35 product, prides itself on its simple use, making automation easier to implement than other options on the market. It runs on 64-bit Linux Ubuntu, MacOS 10.13 and Windows 10, and supports PE.COFF, ELF, Mach-O, .NES and raw binary files.

8. Resource hacker, using this beautiful utility, you can see what is stored in WindowsPE executable resources. You can find many interesting things, such as raw binary data, dialog boxes, bitmaps, strings, icons. It allows you to modify it or replace it with your own version.

9. Wireshark-network sniffer, view applications sent and received from the Internet. Monitor network activity and look for hidden communication channels.
