Defiling Mac OS X Redux - Snare

At Ruxcon 2011, Snare gave a talk on various techniques that can be used in rootkits for the unholy fusion of Mach and BSD that is the XNU kernel. This talk will revisit some of those techniques and maybe some new ones.

Simseer - A Software Similarity Web Service - Silvio

Determining the similarity between software is a problem which can be used to identify malware variants, detect software theft, reveal plagiarism and discover duplicate fragments of code. In this talk I will discuss the academic approach to tackle this problem. I will also demonstrate Simseer - a new web service that scores the similarity between submitted programs and renders an evolutionary which visualises program relationships and families.
