The fun way to learn how to build windows GUI programs by creating your own crackme's for reverse engineering

Ratings: 4.90 / 5.00




Description

If you want to get started quickly on building rich gui-based crackmes using drag and drop method the easy way, then this course is for you. You will learn how to use Embarcadero C++ Builder (Free Community Edition) to create form-based apps much like Visual Basic, where you drag and drop buttons, input boxes, labels etc onto forms. A CrackMe is a small program designed to test a programmer's reverse engineering skills.

You will also learn C++ programming. After learning the basic skills taught in this course, you will be able to create any type of crackme you can imagine.  Publish them on crackmes websites or share with your friends, or, put up on youtube, etc. Your limit is your imagination!

This course is also ideal for Software Developers who want to learn how to protect their software from being reversed. They can rapidly create crackmes to test out new ideas and if it works implement the ideas in their real software. The CrackMe's you build are compiled into native exe files and are suitable for practising reverse engineering using x64dbg or any windows reversing tools you prefer.
