The Interactive Disassembler (IDA) is a disassembler for computer software which generates assembly language source code from machine-executable code. It supports a variety of executable formats for different processors and operating systems. It can also be used as a debugger for Windows PE, Mac OS X Mach-O, and Linux ELF executables. A decompiler plug-in, which generates a high level, C source code-like representation of the analysed program, is available at extra cost.^[4]^[5]

IDA is used widely in software reverse engineering, including for malware analysis^[6]^[7] and software vulnerability research.^[8] IDA has been referred to as the "de-facto industry standard disassembler".^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]
