REcon 2013 - The Future of RE : Dynamic Binary Visualization (Christopher Domas)

Maybe it's a matter of tooling. I don't want to appear disrespectful, but after having seen Christopher Domas present "The Future of RE: Dynamic Binary Visualization" my mind was forever blown. Working with hexdumps, debuggers, disassemblers etc. seems so stone-agey compared to that. Like so much in IT in general. Anyways, caveman CAN more than crawl, obviously ;-) So, if you have up to an hour of time to waste, maybe you can have your mind blown to cantor dust too?

I don't think it's quite what you're looking for but cantor.dust is an interesting visualization tool for binary data. Security conference presentation from a decade ago: ▶ this video Release of open-source Ghidra plugin in 2020: [link]

Yep. I didn't read most of the last 1/2-1/3 of the slides, but it looks like the magic number may be different for each machine (ie. there is no one binary to rule them all[all though you could probably trivially generate all possibilities])? And that there is at least some process involved in determining the number what the number is? The author is legit. Here's a somewhat recent talk he gave: ▶ this video
