IDA Pro is a unique, easy to use, programmable, interactive, multi-processor disassembler combined with a local and remote debugger and augmented by a complete plugin programming environment. IDA Pro is in many ways unique. IDA Pro's interactivity allows you to improve disassemblies in real time.

IDA Pro 's multi-processor support is unmatched. As a disassembler, IDA Pro explores binary programs, for which source code isn't always available, to create maps of their execution.

The real interest of a disassembler is that it shows the instructions that are actually executed by the processor in a symbolic representation called assembly language. If the friendly screen saver you have just installed is spying on your e-banking session or logging your e-mails, a disassembler can reveal it.

However, assembly language is hard to make sense of. That's why advanced techniques have been implemented into IDA Pro to make that code more readable, in some cases, quite close to the original source code that produced the binary program.

The map of the program's code then be postprocessed for further investigations. Some people have used it as the root of a genomic classification of viruses. (digital genome mapping advanced malware analysis) But, in real life, things aren't always simple.

Hostile code usually does not cooperate with the analyst. Viruses, worms and trojans are often armoured and obfuscated. More powerful tools are required.

The debugger in IDA Pro complements the static analysis capabilities of the disassembler: by allowing to single step through the code being investigated, the debugger often bypasses the obfuscation and helps obtaindata that the more powerful static disassembler will be able to process in depth.

IDA Pro can be used as a local and as a remote debugger on the 80x86 (typically Windows/Linux) and the ARM plaform (typically Windows CE PDAs). Remote debuggers are very useful when one wants to safely dissect potentially harmful programs.

Because no computer can currently beat the human brain when it comes to exploring the unknown, IDA Pro is fully interactive.

In sharp contrast with its predecessors, IDA always allows the human analyst to override its decisions or to provide hints. Interactivity culminates in a built-in programming language and an open plugin architecture.

IDA Pro contains a complete development environment that consists of a very powerful macro-like language that can be used to automate simple to medium complexity tasks.

For more advanced tasks, our open plugin architecture puts no limits on what external developers can do to enhance IDA Pro's functionality.

Limitations in the unregistered version

  • It only supports the 80x86 & ARM family : IDA Pro support a large number of other processors.
  • It will only load file of PE/ELF/Macho-O formats. The full version of IDA Pro will accept virtually any file, from Atmel ROMs to iPhone executables. See our disassembly gallery for information about the additional processors, operating systems and file formats we support.
  • The only compiler signatures included are the ones that can be used to produce Windows 32 PE files; the only type information included is for Visual C++ 6 and Borland C++ Builder.
  • You will not be able to save your work, it will time out after some use, it will not disassemble itself.

What's new in IDA Pro 8.3:

  • IDA Teams and Lumina:
  • lumina: add a UI action to inspect a function's metadata history
  • lumina: allow specifying up to two Lumina servers (public or private, in any order)
