Description
Welcome to x86/x64 Assembly Language programming course for Windows!
We start with building strong fundamentals:
Bits, bytes and words,
Signed and unsigned numbers,
Integer overflow and saturation,
Assembly and disassembly,
...and much more!
We learn here Intel 64 and AMD 64 Architecture presented as brief lectures.
Next, we install and setup the Microsoft Visual Studio to work with MASM x64 Assembly Language.
Explained step by step.
Next, we dive into MASM x64 syntax, x86/x64 core instructions, but also MultiMedia eXtensions (MMX), Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) and Advanced Vector eXtensions (AVX/AVX-512).
Course contains laboratories when we learn how to create C++/x64 Assembly and .NET/x64 Assembly hybrid applications.
There are also topics related to the basics of cybersecurity, such as:
idea of code obfuscation and deobfuscation,
self-modifying code,
erasing payloads from memory,
calling Windows API and Native API functions,
bypassing API monitoring tools with SYSCALL instruction,
writing x86 custom bootloader program which works in 16 bit real mode,
and more!
Enjoy comfortable learning: Build 50+ educational code samples attached to this course in Microsoft Visual Studio with two clicks (Build > Rebuild Solution).

You have my code assistance.
I am open to record individual tutorial video for your question and add this lecture to course.
I have a sore throat. Please enable text captions for better accessibility.
Who this course is for:
- Future cybersecurity specialists
- Students bored of multiplying matrices
- Other architectures programmers (like ARM) who want to learn x64 Assembly (MASM)

Fascinated with cybersecurity. Friend of animals. Open to help and share knowledge. Ex-vaper, quitted nicotine vaping in December 2020. Addicted to writing educational code samples, tools and technical texts.
Computer system is like a living organism. Controlled exposure of a biological organism to infection increases its immunity. It is similar with computer systems, but here these controlled infections are red team operations, pentests and threat simulations.
I produce tools and educational materials for ethical hackers, pentesters, blue teams, red team operations, security analysts and colleges.
Security analysts without access to advanced tools are like soldiers training shooting with toy water guns. My vision is to provide high quality computer programs, source codes and educational materials for security analysts. I follow my vision in ethical, lawful and responsible way.
