A cybersecurity analyst discovered a suspicious binary suspected of being malware on the company's network. The analyst decided to perform reverse engineering to understand its behavior. Which tool would be most appropriate for this task?
The correct answer is Immunity Debugger. Immunity Debugger is designed for analyzing and dissecting binaries and malware, giving analysts detailed information and control over the binary's execution. GDB is a general-purpose debugger, while Nmap and OpenVAS are network and vulnerability scanning tools, which are not designed for reverse engineering binaries.
