  • Graphical front end for symbolic execution and control-flow recovery
  • Decompiles machine code to C pseudocode
  • Supports several CPU architectures and executable formats
  • Extensible through the underlying Python platform
  • A genuinely capable decompiler producing C-like output, free and open source
  • Very wide processor instruction set and executable format support
  • Built for teams, with shared projects and version tracking
  • Extensible with Java or Python, and scriptable for automated analysis
  • Assumes familiarity with reverse engineering and binary analysis
  • Most advanced use still involves angr's Python API
  • The project warns that some versions have known security vulnerabilities
  • Java-based, and the interface shows it
  • A steep learning curve even for people who know assembly
  • Distributed as a portable archive rather than an installer, and needs a JDK
