The main idea behind FIRST is to preserve an engineer's analysis
|
|
of certain functions (name, prototype, comment, etc) by using methods
|
|
like opcode hashing, mnemonic hashing, locality sensitive hashing,
|
|
etc. By collecting and storing these signatures centrally the
|
|
framework can provide them later to the community via the API/Plugin.
|
|
The goal is to provide quick lookups for similar functions to avoid
|
|
losing time with analysing a function which was already analysed
|
|
before in another sample or by another engineer.
