Reverse engineering

Read a random definition: acre right

A quick definition of Reverse engineering:

Reverse engineering is a way of figuring out how something works by taking it apart and looking at its pieces. People use reverse engineering to make new things or to fix things that are broken. Sometimes, people use reverse engineering to copy something that someone else made, which can be good or bad. It's okay to use reverse engineering to learn how something works, but it's not okay to use it to copy something that someone else made if they have a patent on it. Reverse engineering is often used for machines and software, but it can be used for other things too.

A more thorough explanation:

Reverse engineering is a process of figuring out how something works by taking it apart and examining its components. This method is often used in machine development, software maintenance, and other areas.

For example, if a company wants to create a product similar to a competitor's, they may use reverse engineering to analyze the competitor's product and figure out how it was made. Similarly, attackers may use reverse engineering to find weaknesses in software and create malware.

Reverse engineering is generally legal, but it can be used for both beneficial and harmful purposes. In trade secret law, reverse engineering is considered an allowed method to discover a trade secret. However, in patent law, reverse engineering is not a defense because the patent owner has exclusive rights to use, own, or develop the patent.
