FAQ
What is software reverse engineering and what is included in it?
What does reverse engineering mean? Our expert reverse engineering services uncover the inner workings and structure of your hardware or software. Apriorit can assist you with integrating undocumented file formats and APIs, recreating documentation for legacy code, and finding suitable technologies for your product. All this will help you gain insights into intricate systems, enabling you to make informed decisions, detect possible project constraints, and optimize your software development and compatibility efforts.
Is reverse engineering ethical and legal?
<p>The reverse engineering process is completely legal when performed properly. Apriorit prioritizes ethical and legal practices, so you can confidently leverage the benefits of reverse engineering while staying in line with the law. We also keep your private data confidential and prevent it from being misused.<br>
Here are some recommendations on how to reverse engineer software without breaking the law:
</p>
<ol>
<li>Obtain a license for the software you want to research</li>
<li>Make sure that the license doesn’t explicitly prohibit reverse engineering</li>
<li>Use the results of reverse engineering to improve compatibility or create a unique product</li>
<li>Don’t disclose the results of reverse engineering</li>
</ol>
How do you approach and integrate reverse engineering services into clients’ projects?
<p>How does reverse engineering work in our case? At Apriorit, we start with a thorough analysis of the project’s feasibility and legal considerations. We assess the amount and complexity of code to be reversed. We also check the availability of tools to work with the architecture the code is built for, or we develop such tools ourselves.
<br>Once we have a comprehensive understanding of the project, we create a research plan and provide initial estimates. Apriorit dedicated reverse engineers develop a Proof of Concept to demonstrate the effectiveness of the reverse engineered code. Finally, we refine the code, conduct thorough testing, and provide comprehensive documentation along with the source code to the client.
</p>
What kind of reverse engineering tasks can be delegated?
<p>The Apriorit reverse engineering service company performs the following tasks:</p>
<ul>
<li>Malware research</li>
<li>Closed data format and protocol research</li>
<li>Software and operating system research to provide compatibility and advanced features</li>
<li>Analysis for IP rights violation cases</li>
<li>Support and patching of undocumented code</li>
<li>Firmware reversing</li>
</ul>
Will reverse engineering impact the functionality or integrity of my existing systems?
<p>Reverse engineering, when done responsibly and legally, should not directly impact the functionality or integrity of your existing systems. Instead, you will get a reliable product architecture and the prospect of integrating third-party code without crashes. If the process is not conducted correctly, there’s a possibility of unintentional changes or disruptions to systems.</p>
<p>Since reverse engineering requires a certain level of technical expertise and knowledge, it’s best to hire a team of professionals. At Apriorit, we have skilled individuals who understand why reverse engineering is important, know the systems used for this purpose, and can perform reverse engineering accurately.</p>
When is it best to perform reverse engineering services?
Reversing can bring valuable benefits to almost any project at any stage of its development.<br>
Our experience shows that applying reverse engineering to analyze the capabilities of domain-specific projects is extremely beneficial, as it speeds up research and helps the developers to draw up a list of must-have features. You can apply reverse engineering to find suitable technologies for your product and even for creating a reliable product architecture. <br>Some customers also request reverse engineering to ensure a smooth third-party integration or to develop new features for legacy software that they’ve used for years.
Can you rewrite lost parts of code?
<p>We can help you recover lost code by reversing binaries, assessing the possibility of code recovery, and evaluating the efforts required to do it.</p>
With lost code, in some instances it makes more, it makes more business sense to write a new codebase from scratch. If necessary, Apriorit can provide you with a skilled development team that will implement your specifications in a way that fits your business needs.
What kinds of deliverables do you provide?
<p>At Apriorit, we understand that each research task is unique, so our experts carefully select the appropriate tools and methodologies and formulate a preliminary plan with hypotheses to test and data to gather.</p>
<p>As a result of our outsourced reverse engineering software services, you will get a research report that includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Task and subtask formalization</li>
<li>A description of investigated approaches, tested hypotheses, and tools and technologies used for research</li>
<li>Research results, including function interfaces, data format descriptions, and other project-specific details</li>
<li>Working prototypes around research results upon your request</li>
</ul>
<p>To ensure the transparency and convenience of our collaboration, we provide a free preliminary estimate that outlines the scope, time, and efforts required for your research project.</p>
Can you help with detecting and fixing issues without source code?
<p>This is a challenging task, but our Apriorit reverse engineering team can do it. The complexity of such a task depends on factors like product size, available documentation, and technologies involved. For example, detecting issues that emerge after a system or environment update requires comparing the product’s behavior in the previous stable environment vs the current environment. We evaluate all risks and discuss them with our clients before we start working on such projects. </p>
Apriorit’s seasoned reversing team with over 20 years of experience ensures legal and safe approaches to your tasks. We prioritize understanding the problem and your desired outcomes. Contact us with your challenging reverse engineering task and we’ll collaborate on potential solutions tailored to your needs.
