Ghidra (pronounced GEE-druh;[3]/ˈɡiːdrə/[4]) is a free and open source reverse engineering tool developed by the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States. The binaries were released at RSA Conference in March 2019; the sources were published one month later on GitHub.[5] Ghidra is seen by many security researchers as a competitor to IDA Pro.[6] The software is written in Java using the Swing framework for the GUI. The decompiler component is written in C++, and is therefore usable in a stand-alone form.[7]
Scripts to perform automated analysis with Ghidra can be written in Java or Python (via Jython),[8][9] though this feature is extensible and support for other programming languages is available via community plugins.[10] Plugins adding new features to Ghidra itself can be developed using a Java-based extension framework.[11]
