No source code? No problem. With IDA Pro, the interactive disassembler, you live in a source code-optional world. IDA can automatically analyze the millions of opcodes that make up an executable and present you with a disassembly. But at that point, your work is just beginning. With The IDA Pro Book, you’ll learn how to turn that mountain of mnemonics into something you can actually use.

Hailed by the creator of IDA Pro as “profound, comprehensive, and accurate,” the second edition of The IDA Pro Book covers everything from the very first steps to advanced automation techniques. You’ll find complete coverage of IDA’s new Qt-based user interface, as well as increased coverage of the IDA debugger, the Bochs debugger, and IDA scripting (especially using IDAPython). But because humans are still smarter than computers, you’ll even learn how to use IDA’s latest interactive and scriptable interfaces to your advantage.

Save time and effort as you learn to:
–Navigate, comment, and modify disassembly
–Identify known library routines, so you can focus your analysis on other areas of the code
–Use code graphing to quickly make sense of cross references and function calls
–Extend IDA to support new processors and filetypes using the SDK
–Explore popular plug-ins that make writing IDA scripts easier, allow collaborative reverse engineering, and much more
–Use IDA’s built-in debugger to tackle hostile and obfuscated code

Whether you’re analyzing malware, conducting vulnerability research, or reverse engineering software, a mastery of IDA is crucial to your success. Take your skills to the next level with this 2nd edition of The IDA Pro Book.

    The Ultimate IDA Pro Help Resource
    IDA Pro is a very powerful tool that is very difficult to learn and use. I am very versed in using windows applications and even difficult Unix applications to master like vi. I also did not find the IDA Pro help very useful.If you own a copy of IDA Pro you need a copy of this book. It clearly illustrates the many nuances of using IDA Pro and is full of tips and tricks.

    Big book ,good writen , came with scratch on the bottom.
    The book is great , the writer did really great job.Im not abook type , especially when we are talking about assembly . But the book is really clear and good writen .Gave it 4 stars because it came with a littel scratch on the bottom wich was disappointing , not sure if its a production or dilivery mistake . It came really fast , the book is relly fat with nice touch , contains images and clear instructions the chosen font is great as well .Really happy about the purchase.

    kindle version is terrible
    the content seems fine, but the kindle version doesn’t have an index of any kind. you just have to flip through (slowly) to find the chapter or page you want.

    The content is excellent. Detail is well covered and the style is well readable for such a technical book. Although the book is a 2011 edition it is still relevant to the techniques it covers. One star missing because I had a problem with the cover coming unstuck. The seller gave me a discount so I was happy to keep it but will need to handle it very carefully.

    I had already bought the first edition when it came out and rushed to order the second edition accordingly.This book is an invaluable reference and tutorial into the many aspects of IDA Pro. IDA gets continuously extended and improved and while IDAPython was already existent when the first edition of this title came out, it was not really explained in detail. The new proximity view in IDA Pro is not explained in this edition, for example. Which is to show how hard it is for a book author to keep up with the developer team at Hex-Rays.IDAPython is now explained in detail and although I haven’t read this one cover to cover like I did with the first edition, I could already see that the improvements stretch beyond this particular topic.The book explains the just about any aspect of IDA Pro, from the surface (the GUI ) deep into the bowels of it (writing plugins and processor modules, certain internals). You could just as well let IDA disassemble itself (remember, the license allows it), but this book will make the transfer of knowledge easier and faster.A must-have for any proper IDA Pro user. Absolutely recommended. A third edition will also be by me ordered as soon as it becomes available.
