Defending the Poor (26c3)

The talk will discuss a class of in-the-wild malware and exploits, reasons for it's success as well as reasons why protecting against it in common ways is not effective. This will be done by examining the internals of the attacked subject. Following this, the second part of the talk will present an alternative protection mechanism, which the presenter believes prevents large parts of this class of attacks. The mechanisms and code to do this will be presented and released. about this event: http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan/events/3494.en.html
