"Swiss army knife for reverse engineers."
😼🕵️♂️ **Binsider** can perform static and dynamic analysis, inspect strings, examine linked libraries, and perform hexdumps, all within a user-friendly terminal user interface!
## Quickstart
> [!TIP]
> Watch the quickstart video to get a glimpse of what `binsider` can do: [https://youtu.be/InhVCQoc5ZE](https://youtu.be/InhVCQoc5ZE)
Install `binsider` with `cargo`:
```bash
cargo install binsider
```
> [!NOTE]
> See the other [installation methods](https://binsider.dev/installation/other/) 📦
After the installation, you are pretty much set! 💯
Just dive into the binaries by running `binsider`:
```bash
binsider
```
## Features
> [!NOTE]
> The detailed documentation is available at 📚
### General Analysis
You can retrieve general binary file information, including file size, ownership, permissions, date, and linked shared libraries (similar to [`stat(1)`](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/stat.1.html) and [`ldd(1)`](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/ldd.1.html)).

### Static Analysis
You can analyze the ELF layout (such as sections, segments, symbols, and relocations) and navigate through them to get an in-depth understanding of the binary.

➡️
### Dynamic Analysis
It is possible to execute the binary and trace the system calls, signals, and the program's execution flow similar to [`strace(1)`](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/strace.1.html) and [`ltrace(1)`](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/ltrace.1.html).

➡️
### String Extraction
Similar to the [`strings(1)`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/strings) command, `binsider` is able to extract strings from the binary file with the purpose of discovering interesting strings such as URLs, passwords, and other sensitive information.

### Hexdump
`binsider` provides a rich dashboard along with a hexdump view to analyze the binary content in a structured manner.
