🗣️ Overview # This research topic proposes a cross-architecture software birthmarks that targets the real-world executables such as Linux ELF, Windows PE, and macOS Mach-O. The birthmarks are extracted from the intermediate representation of the executables throughGhidra’s p-code.

:speaking_head: Overview # The software birthmarks were proposed for detecting the software theft from a large number of suspected programs. The birthmark is a technique to compare the extracted characteristics as the software birthmarks, and compute similarities between two birthmarks. The conventional birthmarks require a much time by increasing the target programs for comparison. Therefore, it is the bottleneck of the conventional birthmarking technique. In this paper, we propose a method for reducing total processing time by introducing the narrowing phase between conventional extracting and comparison phases. The narrowing phase employs the fast but rough comparison algorithm in order to eliminate unrelated programs.
