Past Meetings

The “enumeration of badness” approach to security has failed for two major reasons. First, the amount of “badness” is practically infinite. Second, it’s unrealistic to detect all future “badness” based on the past. Yet, the majority of products are still based on this method. Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities are just one example of the unpredictability of future “badness”. However, “goodness” is actually finite. So, is it possible to create a map of all legitimate OS behavior? The answer is yes.
