This article will find out a solution to serialize/deserialize object by reference at server and client, also will serialize/deserialize objects having circular references.
Historically, ETW has been portrayed as having a very steep learning curve, along the lines of the effort required to summit Everest. Realizing its potential value, I set about to reduce the effort to that required to summit Pike's Peak.
This article shows you how to implement trampolines on x64, introduces the idea of sync and async hooks, and dynamically added runtime filters and loggers.
A totally new version of the article I wrote many years ago called "There and Back Again or Stepping Through the JIT Thunk Layer" but this time examines 64-bit processes and V4.0 of Microsoft's .NET runtime.
To fully take advantage of parallelization features, developers have to change how they code. But a great deal of optimizations can be made through Intel’s parallelization tool, Intel Advisor.
Ever wanted to know how to call internal functions of other processes? This is an article on just that -- you'll learn how to read disassembled code in a project where the source code is known, and then apply that knowledge on an application where it isn't.
This is a complete beginners guide to codecaves that covers the main topics of: what a codecave is, what a codecave can be used for, and how to use a codecave.
Modify methods' IL codes on runtime even if they have been JIT-compiled, supports release mode / x64 & x86, and variants of .NET versions, from 2.0 to 4.5.
In this article, we continue investigation in the field of hiding application in the system. This article will tell where Windows OS stores the services and how uses them. We’ll discuss how this knowledge can be applied to finding our custom service and hiding it.
2 years ago I went OCD on memcpy/memmove; and wrote over 140 variations (80,000 lines of code) of memmove; testing, disassembling, optimizing and benchmarking them on multiple machines. I never released the article or the code; until now! So I need to do it before I loose my mind!
This article shows several examples of situations where understanding assembly language helps debug seemingly impossible problems with .NET applications.
This article shows how to access Windows API with plain x64 assembly programming language (MASM style). It shall also give an overview, how to apply some programming techniques like OOP and multithreading on a low level.
A look into what goes into the area of preventing reverse engineering, and gives developers some functions and ideas about preventing reversing engineering of their programs.
In this article we will create a simple kernel such as printing HelloWorld first and then writing functions for printing numbers, Keyboard I/O, Box Drawing GUI, and Tic-Tac-Toe game in kernel in C
In this article, I will talk about the theories and implementations of API hooking. API hooking is a powerful technique that allows someone to hijack a function and redirect it to a custom one. Anything can be done in these functions before passing control back to the original API.
Understand exactly what happens during object allocation in .NET, why it's extremely efficient in the common case, and how to trigger slower code paths
XMLFoundation is the fastest XML Parser available. It is also a framework foundation for an application that uses XML to enable Object-XML mappings and Application Layer binding to XML Data objects.
When discussing VB6, we should look at the reality of the situation and not on preconceived opinions. New source code projects are made daily in Visual Basic 6.0. The paper proposes the reintroduction of Visual Basic 6.0 on the market, in parallel with Visual Studio line.
This article presents an experimental platform consisting of two computers to conduct hardware programming and research, unrestricted by any Operating System.

The first part of a two-part article which will illustrate how to redirect the PLT of a process through the injection of a shared object into its address space.
An intensive research is given on this topic. A handy utility tool is built to check if an assembly unmanaged or managed, built for 32-bit or 64-bit Windows.
How to write a reliable shellcode on win32, how to bypass the obstacles that you will face in writing a win32 shellcode and how to implement your shellcode into Metasploit
Several users have written to me requesting information on the new Cosmos X86 assembly level debugger. Because of the great interest I have written this short preview article.
Part 1 of this article discussed an algorithm for addressing all pixels within a circle with surgical precision, optionally expanded to filling in those pixels as required to create a color wheel; this is part 2 of 2, covering the actual implementation.
Although most Windows programmers have already used the RichEdit Control, many of them are not aware of all its capabilities. One such capability is image embedding.
Fast image inversion forms a good basis for optimizing pixel wise operations. We will discuss the ways to achieve the best speed on this inversion operator.
An Image fader application. This hides information behinde an image and fades it out onMouseOver to display the content behind the image. Useful for hiding something, or as a stylish accessory.
