Security at Kernel Level
Philippe Biondi - Security at Kernel Level Security is a problem of trust.
Summary
Architecture and Background
Philippe Biondi - Security at Kernel Level Security is a problem of trust. Having a system that offers services to Internet and that can be trusted is very hard to achieve.
Vulnerability Analysis
Classical security models focus on the physical limit of the machine. We will see that it can be interesting to move the trust limit between user space and kernel space and that it is still possible to enforce a security policy from this trusted place.
Exploitation and Demonstrations
We will also see some practical aspects with a review of some implementations that exist for Linux kernels. Philippe Biondi is a security consultant at Cartel Sécurité.
Remediation and Defensive Strategies
He is involved in the developpement of LIDS. He does about everything that is related to computer security.
