Hi! I’m Ziqiao Kong, a 2nd year Ph.D. student supervised by Prof. Liu Yang at Nanyang Technological University. I mainly focus on building useful, practical and secure softwares and you might already use some of them, either directly or indirectly. An incomplete list with Github stars is:

• Unicorn Engine/8k: Ultimate CPU emulator.
• qiling/5.3k: Widely adopted binary instrumentation framework.
• AFL++/5.6k: SOTA greybox fuzzing.
• LibAFL/2.2k: Modular fuzzing framework in Rust.
• pwndbg/8.3k: GDB/LLDB debugging tools.
• pwntools/12.4k: CTF pwn framework.
