About hacking

The multiple articles written about hacking expose work done to exploit vulnerabilities. Techniques range from software without any mitigations, ASLR, DEP or ALL-THE-THINGs activated or web hacking or tricks. The end-goal is to show how it can be done and prove that as long as there is software, there will be vulnerabilities.

The goal is also to make defenders think offensively as a lot of people will fall to the exploitability trap. If you think that it’s non exploitable and it is, well you’re in for a bad day. You got bugs or vulnerabilities? Just fix them. Exploit writing is a full-time job as the articles here depicts.

An offensive approach is obviously taken as in order to properly create defenses or mitigations, you have to think at novel ways of attacks against your protections. It could also be said the same about defense but without thinking offensively, defense fails.

A famous hacker said it : “start thinking like an attacker as well… or you fail as a defender” (Solar Designer)

Defense has to think offensively due to threat asymmetry.

About computers

Computer algorithms and programming is the foundation on which our modern world depends on to work. It became so important that it nows affect people lives directly and indirectly :

• using maps applications
• online shopping
• electricity
• gas
• banking
• photos
• social
• military
• many others

Programming has thus a proper place here.

Moreover, understanding algorithms is an important part of reverse engineering and system or program understanding.

Others

Rambling, philosophy or any subjects that may be interesting to talk about.
