-# Ghidra
+# Ghidra Software Reverse Engineering Framework
 
-Ghidra is a soon-to-be-released open source software project created and
-maintained by the [National Security Agency][nsa].
+Ghidra is a software reverse engineering (SRE) framework created and maintained by the [National Security Agency][nsa] Research Directorate. This framework includes a suite of full-featured, high-end software analysis tools that enable users to analyze compiled code on a variety of platforms including Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. Capabilities include disassembly, assembly, decompilation, graphing, and scripting, along with hundreds of other features. Ghidra supports a wide variety of process instruction sets and executable formats and can be run in both user-interactive and automated modes. Users may also develop their own Ghidra plug-in components and/or scripts using Java or Python.
 
-This repository is a placeholder. Efforts are under way to make the software
-available here. In the meantime, please consider taking a look at our
-[contributor guide][contrib] to see how you can participate in this open source
-project when it becomes available.
+In support of NSA's Cybersecurity mission, Ghidra was built to solve scaling and teaming problems on complex SRE efforts, and to provide a customizable and extensible SRE research platform. NSA has applied Ghidra SRE capabilities to a variety of problems that involve analyzing malicious code and generating deep insights for SRE analysts who seek a better understanding of potential vulnerabilities in networks and systems.
+
+This repository is a placeholder for the full open source release.
+Be assured efforts are under way to make the software available here.
+In the meantime, enjoy using Ghidra on your SRE efforts, developing your
+own scripts and plugins, and perusing the over a million lines of Java and
+Sleigh code released within the initial public release.
