Book Description

Explaining security vulnerabilities, possible exploitation scenarios, and prevention in a systematic manner, this guide to BIOS exploitation describes the Reverse Engineering techniques used to gather information from BIOS and expansion ROMs. SMBIOS/DMI exploitation techniques including BIOS rootkits and computer defense and the exploitation of embedded x86 BIOS are also covered.

This book is primarily oriented toward system programmers and computer security experts. In addition, electronic engineers, pc technicians and computer enthusiasts can also benefit a lot from this book. Furthermore, due to heavy explanation of applied computer architecture (x86 architecture) and compression algorithm, computer science students might also find it useful. However, nothing prevents any people who is curious about BIOS technology to read this book and get benefit from it.

• Darmawan Salihun has published papers on BIOS reverse engineering, BIOS code injection techniques, BIOS hacking, Plug and Play BIOS, and PCI protocol exploitation in the CodeBreakers Journal.

• x86 Disassembly: Exploring C, x86 Assembly, and Machine Code

  This book is about the disassembly of x86 machine code into human-readable assembly, and the decompilation of x86 assembly code into human-readable C or C++ source code. Some topics covered will be common to all computer architectures, not just x86-compatible machines.

• Reverse Engineering for Beginners (Dennis Yurichev)

  This book teaches you how to decipher assembly language for those beginners who would like to learn to understand x86 (which accounts for almost all executable software in the world) and ARM code created by C/C++ compilers.
