    Chris Dalton (HP, Bristol, UK)

This talk looks at a pragmatic attempt at strengthening the security properties of Linux by introducing a degree of intra-kernel protection into the Linux kernel (supported by CPU Virtualization silicon features). Consider it, if you like, an attempt at retrofitting a ‘micro-kernel’ interface into traditionally monolithic Linux whilst maintaining a single linux code base (yes it’s still Linux), no need for a hypervisor and with reasonable performance characteristics. The motivation for the work was the frightening increase in reliance on the security properties of the Linux kernel driven by trends away from full-virtualization solutions such as VMWare and KVM and towards lighter weight containment approaches led by Docker, et al for application hosting, deployment and consolidation.

Il arrive que les propriétaires de ces données souhaitent collaborer entre eux afin d’augmenter la qualité de ces données, particulièrement avant d’entrainer des modèles d’apprentissage machine.Dans cet exposé[…]

    Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are designed to provide a service, such as power generation or water treatment, while protecting people, assets, and the environment against hazards. However, ICS now integrate Information Technology (IT) and are interconnected with the outside world such as the Internet, thereby exposing their infrastructures to cyberattacks. Cyberattacks have thus become new[…]
