Who is this for?
The target audience for this training consists of beginner-intermediate level security researchers and developers interested in iOS internals and runtime analysis. Students should have:
- Basic understanding of operating systems architecture (userland/kernel separation)
- Basic familiarity with debuggers (LLDB/GDB basic commands)
- Working knowledge of C (Objective-C experience would be helpful)
- Basic JavaScript skills (for Frida)
- Understanding of process memory layout (heap, stack, registers)
Students who take this course should be looking to transfer research skills from Linux/Windows/Android to iOS or to begin/advance their research journey by learning about iOS internals and research tools. They want to understand how to investigate iOS applications and system services at runtime, trace inter-process communication, and build custom instrumentation for security research or advanced development.
