NUS SOC Summer Workshop 2019
About Topic
DOTA Defense of the Ancients
Cluster: AI and Security
No - not DOTA, and not DOTA 2. This workshop is all about computer security. We are building a brave new world, where computer systems intrude everywhere, in your home, at your work, in your pockets. Many systems are based on truly ancient technology. We will look at how to defend our ancient systems, providing practical guidance as to how to make you, your organization, and even your country safer.
DOTA will cover topics such as: attack surfaces for Windows and UNIX based systems, Android, GSM, SCADA/PLCs networking hardware, remote car controllers; injections, cross-site scripting, overflows, classic attacks, cryptography, PKI; defenses: software techniques, design approaches, configurations, IDS.
