Software obfuscation has always been a controversially discussed research area. While
theoretical results indicate that provably secure obfuscation in general is impossible, its …

As an active defense technique to change asymmetry in cyberattack‐defense confrontation,
moving target defense research has become one of the hot spots. In order to gain better …

Sharing memory pages between non-trusting processes is a common method of reducing
the memory footprint of multi-tenanted systems. In this paper we demonstrate that, due to a …

Industrial control systems (ICSs) are transitioning from legacy-electromechanical-based
systems to modern information and communication technology (ICT)-based systems …

Fine-grained address space layout randomization (ASLR) has recently been proposed as a
method of efficiently mitigating runtime attacks. In this paper, we introduce the design and …

The idea of automatic software diversity is at least two decades old. The deficiencies of
currently deployed defenses and the transition to online software distribution (the" App store" …

This paper describes a new replication algorithm that is able to tolerate Byzantine faults. We
believe that Byzantinefault-tolerant algorithms will be increasingly important in the future …

Our growing reliance on online services accessible on the Internet demands highly
available systems that provide correct service without interruptions. Software bugs, operator …

Code-reuse attacks such as return-oriented programming (ROP) pose a severe threat to
modern software. Designing practical and effective defenses against code-reuse attacks is …

This paper presents a systematic solution to the persistent problem of buffer overflow
attacks. Buffer overflow attacks gained notoriety in 1988 as part of the Morris Worm incident …
