About:
Ghidra is a software reverse engineering (SRE) framework created and maintained by the NSA. It features a rich GUI, an integrated disassembler, decompiler, and graphing capabilities. It enables analysts to decompile compiled code, facilitating the analysis of malware and proprietary software.
Key Features:
  • Graphing and cross-referencing capabilities
  • Integrated decompiler for high-level code analysis
  • Scripting support via Java and Python (Jython)
  • Collaborative reverse engineering features
Use Cases:
  • Malware analysis and threat intelligence
  • Vulnerability research and exploit development
  • Firmware analysis for embedded devices
Alternatives:
  • IDA Pro – Industry standard but expensive and proprietary; Ghidra is a powerful free and open-source alternative.
  • Binary Ninja – Modern API and automation focus; Ghidra offers comparable decompilation for free.
