• Dynamic analysis techniques to analyse a code being executed at runtime
• Perform remote debugging of an application using Android Studio, IDA Pro
• Dynamic code hooking (Java and Native) with FRIDA

"This is a CrackMe-like challenge where flags have to be found by only applying dynamic analysis tools and techniques.

You will have to analyse an application at runtime by debugging the code and by instrumenting it using FRIDA.

• Knowledge of the anatomy of an Android app (if not, Module 1 required)
• Knowledge of the SMALI syntax (if not, Module 1 required)
• Knowledge of the Java and C/C++ programming languages
• Being at ease with Linux-based environment system
• Knowledge of the Java programming language
• Beginner level with the tools: GHIDRA, Android Studio, jeb (or any free alternative, like jadx)
