We have powerful and easy to use tools that can vastly improve the quality and security of the code we use everyday.
Code written in C and C++ is often riddled with bugs in the memory management. Out of bounds accesses, use after free errors and other issues can hamper the security and stability of applications. Unfortunately many free software developers don't use freely available tools that easily allow finding and eliminating many of these bugs. The talk will encourage developers t… Read more

TLS is by far the most important cryptographic protocol in use today. In recent years TLS received much more attention from security researchers. Implementation errors like Heartbleed and protocol bugs like BEAST, Lucky Thirteen, DROWN and many more have made headlines.
Faulty implementations can enable attacks. In some cases they can even be a security risk for uninvolved third parties and endanger the whole TLS ecosystem. Especially so-called Enterprise devices that have their own T… Read more
