Base64 is also widely used for sending e-mail attachments, because SMTP – in its original form – was designed to transport 7-bit ASCII characters only. Encoding an attachment as Base64 before sending, and then decoding when received, assures older SMTP servers will not interfere with the attachment.
A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text.More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters.These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean.
010 Editor is a commercial hex editor and text editor for Microsoft Windows, Linux and macOS. Typically 010 Editor is used to edit text files , binary files , hard drives , processes, tagged data (e.g. XML , HTML ), source code (e.g. C++ , PHP , JavaScript ), shell scripts (e.g. Bash , batch files ), log files, etc.
ImHex is a free cross-platform hex editor available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. [ 1 ] ImHex is used by programmers and reverse engineers to view and analyze binary data.
The simplicity of the original BinHex format made it inefficient, expanding every byte of input into two, as required by the hexadecimal representation, an 8-to-4 bit encoding. Lempereur implemented a new 8-to-6 bit encoding, which decreased file size by 50% and expanded the checksum from 8 to 16-bits, releasing this as BinHex 2.0.
HxD is a freeware hex editor, disk editor, and memory editor developed by Maël Hörz for Windows. It can open files larger than 4 GiB and open and edit the raw contents of disk drives, as well as display and edit the memory used by running processes. Among other features, it can calculate various checksums, compare files, or shred files. [1]
Burp Decoder: Automates text decoding. [24] Decoded text can then be edited and re-encoded, allowing for enhanced customization in web requests. Currently, Burp can encode and decode in HTML, URL, Base64, ASCII hex, Hex, Octal, Binary, and GZIP. Burp’s “smart decode” will automatically detect encoded data and recursively decode it as much ...
In computing, a hex dump is a textual hexadecimal view (on screen or paper) of (often, but not necessarily binary) computer data, from memory or from a computer file or storage device. Looking at a hex dump of data is usually done in the context of either debugging , reverse engineering or digital forensics . [ 1 ]
