Building a binary analysis tool with Miasm framework

Abstract

Binary code analysis is the process to look in the binary code, find compliance issue, and reduce uncertainty when deploying free and open source software. As cybersecurity threats have shifted from the network perimeter to the application layer in recent years, application security assurance has become a priority for the enterprise. Binary analysis is fascinating but challenging topics. With growing concerns about security, they’re also becoming increasingly important. We need to be able to analyze malware to see what it may do and how we may stop it. But as more and more malware obfuscate itself and applies anti-analysis techniques to thwart our analysis, we need more power full tools with advanced features, friendly, easy to use and especially it is free. In this document, we introduce a solution for analysis an application called NKN. The NKN tool uses Miasm framework to build software with a user-friendly interface - the binary analysis.
