The next scale is reverse engineering, it is a process of recovering the design requirements, specifications
and function of a product from an analysis of its code, it builds a program database and generates
information from this.
The objective of reverse engineering is to expand it the maintenance work by improving on understandability
of produce the necessary document for a legacy system in software security.
Reverse engineering is widely used to ensure that this system does not have any major security flaws
or vulnerabilities.
It helps to make our system strong, thereby protecting it from hackers and spyware.
I know it is difficult to understand.
Let me explain in simple words.
Reverse engineering is also called as make engineering.
It is the process of extracting knowledge or design information from anything manmade and reproducing
it or reproducing anything based on the extracted information.
Reverse engineering is also beneficial in crime, where suspected malware is reverse engineered to understand
what each does and how to detect and remove it, and to allow computers and devices to work together.
Reverse and reverse engineering can also be used to create software and media to remove their copy protection.
So in conclusion, reverse engineering is also an important skill for ethical hacking.
