Overview

Why consider Rizin?

Rizin is an open-source, UNIX-like command-line reverse engineering framework written in C. Forked from Radare2 to focus on stability, usability, and strict code quality, Rizin analyzes binary architectures (x86, ARM, MIPS, RISC-V), manages debuggers, and decompiles code.
