Ghidra is a very impressive piece of software with a deep bench of functionality. The recent couple major releases that move to a more integrated Python experience have been very nice to use.

I always wondered whether they have a much more capable internal version. And I wonder the same thing for AI labs (they have to do a lot of lobotomy for their models to be ready for public use... but internally, they can just skip this perhaps?)

Too many people in the know about this stuff I think to keep it hidden for that long. At the same time, we keep finding stuff that that should have held for and it didn't, so maybe you're right.

Very likely people who actually work on RE at the NSA also have access to IDA Pro licenses. I don't work in this space, so take it with a pinch of salt, but my understanding is this is a fairly long term strategic initiative to _eventually_ be the best tool.

Just use the official github link or links that are linked there. The URL you mentioned seems bogus at best.
