About IDA
The IDA Disassembler and Debugger is an interactive, programmable, extensible, multi-processor disassembler hosted on Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X. IDA has become the de-facto standard for the analysis of hostile code, vulnerability research and commercial-off-the-shelf validation.
IDA Pro is a disassembler
Capable of creating maps of their execution to show the binary instructions that are actually executed by the processor in a symbolic representation called assembly language.
IDA Pro is a debugger
Complements the static analysis capabilities (examining the code without executing the program) of the disassembler by allowing users to single step through the code being investigated.
Capabilities Overview
FAST - IDA analyzes binaries in a matter of seconds.
FULLY INTERACTIVE - Work seamlessly and quickly with the disassembler and analyse code more intuitively.
ALL STANDARD PLATFORMS SUPPORTED - IDA runs on all standard platforms — MS Windows, Linux, Mac OS X both in GUI and console modes.
MULTIPLE PROCESSOR HANDLING - Same interface and features for dozens of processors to speed up the analysis process.
HANDLES NUMEROUS FILE FORMATS - IDA loads and disassembles virtually any file format.
POWERFUL DEBUGGER - IDA is also a versatile debugger, supports multiple debugging targets and can handle remote applications.
PROGRAMMABLE - Extend IDA in line with your own requirements through IDC or IDAPython.
OPEN PLUG-IN ARCHITECTURE - IDA’s functionality can easily be extended by the use of programmable plug-ins.
FLIRT - Fast Library Identification and Recognition Technology(FLIRT) identifies standard function calls for many compilers.
GRAPHING - Code graphing provides a pictorial overview of the code structure at a glance.
LUMINA SERVER - The Lumina server holds metadata (names, prototypes, operand types) about a large number of well-known functions.
CUSTOMIZABLE - IDA sports a fully customizable and unified work environment on all platforms.
Benefits
Given the speed and the complexity of today’s hostile code, a powerful analysis solution is required. IDA Pro has become such a standard in the field of malware analysis that information about new viruses is often exchanged under the form of “IDA Databases”. IDA Pro is used daily by anti-virus, malware and spyware analysts to investigate new virus samplesthreats and to provide timely solutions.
The topic of vulnerability disclosure remains quite controversial but software is, as a matter of fact, unfortunately often vulnerable to outside attacks. IDA Pro is the ideal tool to investigate such vulnerabilities. If they aren’t fixed they could be exploited by third-parties with dishonest or criminal intentions. The Wisconsin Safety Analyzer, for instance, is a very interesting project investigating software vulnerability where IDA Pro plays an important role.
A lot of software are developed outside the country where they are used. Since those programs are incredibly hard to verify and since complete source code audit and rebuilds aren’t always practical or possble, tools such as IDA provide a convenient way to check if a program really does what it claims to do, contains no harmful vulnerabilities and leaks no sensitive information.
Software is invading our lives at every level. Respect of essential privacy rights is a concern for many, at a time when the amount of data about individual users that can potentially be collected, sold or exploited has surged to an unprecedented level. IDA Pro helps investigate software that may cause concern, thereby protecting your essential rights.
IDA updates and releases
IDA Pro 7.5 released
IDA 7.5.200519
May 19, 2020
Hex-Rays announces the release of IDA Pro 7.5.
IDA Pro is certainly the fastest and most reliable software solution to support professionals in their reverse-engineering work. Version 7.5 has been developed to improve the IDA experience further. It notably introduces the following features:
- Tree folder structure: you can now organize your work in a hierarchical tree structure and gain more efficiency
- MIPS Decompiler: A new decompiler for MIPS is now available
- Lumina: MIPS and PPC processors are now also available in Lumina
- Debugger: coverage extended to 4 additional processors
A lot of work has taken place since the previous release of IDA. Below is quick visual overview of the number of significant changes between 7.4SP1 and 7.5. and cumulatively since version 6.0.
