About this course
When source code is gone or the compiler has transformed it beyond recognition, the machine code is the only truth, and this course teaches you to read it. Working in x86-64 on Linux, you get comfortable with the registers and how arguments and return values are passed, then write a tiny program that talks straight to the kernel with the write and exit syscalls. You study the instruction families that make up most code — data moves, arithmetic, comparisons and branches — and see how call and ret use the stack, which explains why a corrupted return address matters. Practical lessons have you disassemble binaries with objdump, step through them in gdb, and trace syscalls with strace to understand behaviour quickly. The final lesson takes the defensive angle on shellcode: recognising an execve payload and statically analysing an authorised sample, without ever executing it. Everything is local and lawful.

Questions about this course
Is this a subscription?
No. You pay $9.99 once for this course. There is no subscription and nothing renews automatically. Prices are in US dollars; taxes may be added where required.
What exactly do I get?
All lessons and labs of this course, the final exam and the certificate, including later updates to the course, for as long as Tutorvo offers it. Access is personal and tied to your account.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. If you are not satisfied, email hello@tutorvo.com within 14 days of buying and we refund the course in full via Stripe. The guarantee does not apply once a certificate for the course has been issued to you, or where there are signs of abuse.
When can I start?
Right after payment. Access starts immediately at your request; for consumers in the EU/EEA the statutory right of withdrawal therefore ends once access has begun, while our 14-day money-back guarantee applies regardless.

No. The labs run in a spreadsheet inside your browser on a laptop, tablet or phone. Function names and syntax follow Excel.
