       Nick will explore the security consequences of various types of
   programming errors made by those developing on Linux and other systems.
    Ways of avoiding such mistakes will be discussed, and I will consider
    some of the protective technologies currently available for Linux. The
   talk will be illustrated with live demonstrations of attack techniques.
