DTrace talk at CONFidence 2015

Hello, my name is Andrzej Dyjak and I’m part of the research team here at CENSUS. A few weeks ago (on May 26th) I gave a talk titled “DTrace + OS X = Fun” at CONFidence 2015 in which I have described how DTrace can be used in order to ease various tasks within the realm of dynamic analysis on the OS X platform.

Project Heapbleed

I recently presented a talk on heap exploitation abstraction at two conferences, namely ZeroNights 2014 (Moscow, Russia) and BalCCon 2014 (Novi Sad, Serbia). The talk titled “Project Heapbleed”, collected the experience of exploiting allocators in various different target applications and platforms. The talk focused on practical, reusable heap attack primitives that aim to reduce the exploit development time and effort.
