Technical Intelligence | Binary Analysis | Adversary Intent
Welcome to the lab. This site serves as a technical notebook documenting my work in deconstructing complex software and uncovering the logic behind modern threats.
I am Matt Allan, a Technical Security Researcher and Malware Reverse Engineer. This platform is where I transform deep-dive reverse engineering into scalable threat intelligence.
Core Research Areas
- Malware Analysis: Behavioral and static deconstruction of high-impact threats.
- Vulnerability Research: Deep-dives into firmware and application-layer flaws.
- Reverse Engineering: Exploring tools and techniques to help dive deep into low-level code.
- Threat Intellegence: Analyzing threat actors actions and objectives.
