Assembly is the language of reversing binaries, and it can be intimidating to learn. However, you can circumnavigate the need for fluency in this foreign language by learning to use a translation tool like Radare instead—and the assembly will assemble into place later!

Taisa
Taisa played her first season of NCL entirely from a browser-only device and shares her top resources and tricks for competing in less-than-ideal circumstances. Even if you've got Kali running as a VM, low-tech and browser-based tools can be a great way to check your work, troubleshoot your process, or collaborate with teammates in the cloud.

We know what you're thinking: Now that the semester is over and with finals out of the way, what's a student gotta do to learn some Python during winter break around here?? Never you fear, "Beginner Python with wolfshirtz" is here!

It's not often that a tool comes along and changes things. For wolfshirtz, that tool was Ghidra, an open-source decompiler that turns assembly language into something more human-readable. And it's not often that a blog post comes along and explains Ghidra so well! Wolfshirtz walks you through how to get started with Ghidra, his tricks for getting a feel for and maximizing its features, and his cheat sheet of top hotkeys!
