- Practical Binary Analysis covers major binary analysis topics including binary formats, disassembly, and advanced techniques like binary instrumentation and symbolic execution.
- Available in multiple languages: Polish, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese (Mandarin).
- Includes a virtual machine with all examples and software; username and password are 'binary'.
- Important to update the VM using a specific command to fix errata; avoid updating the OS or software packages manually.
- Code samples can be run on platforms other than the VM, but some tools like libdft are not compatible with Windows.
- Triton and libdft depend on older Pin versions, making them challenging to run on modern Linux distros.
- Downloads include virtual machine, code samples, patches, and sample chapters.
- Errata can be reported to No Starch Press or the author.
- Community contributions include CTF walkthroughs, exercise solutions, and custom tools.
- Contact the author via email or PGP key for questions or comments.
