Reverse Engineering and Firmware Analysis Questions

Technical skills for static and dynamic analysis of binaries and firmware, including extracting and unpacking firmware images, analyzing bootloaders, investigating secure boot and integrity mechanisms, and using disassembly and analysis platforms such as Ghidra or IDA Pro. Candidates should be prepared to discuss binary formats and calling conventions, instrumentation and debugging approaches, methodical strategies for unknown embedded code, how to validate findings, and how firmware analysis informs broader forensic and incident response conclusions.
