Anykernels meet fuzzing
how to make NetBSD a better software for you and me
Battle of making the NetBSD better software by leveraging anykernels
The NetBSD offers RUMP anykernel which lets users to do the magic and execute drivers, network stacks or file systems in userspace. Having kernel parts running in user space is a great opportunity to fuzz them efficiently without fancy kernel approaches. First general information about RUMP will be discussed to get the audience familiar with the subject, then results focused on testing network stack will be presented along with encountered problems and other fuzzing efforts that currently are taking place in the NetBSD project.

Seldom have DNS protocol changes sparked such fierce debate as happen in the case of DNS-over-HTTPs (Doh) and it's little cousin, DNS-over-TLS (DoT). While for many people it is a matter of black and white, the reality out there is various shades of grey ;) This talk will discuss the technical and political aspects of these DNS privacy protocols, where they come from, who is implementing DoH/DoT (both in the browser space and otherwise) and why it is a [good|bad] idea to support these protocol ...

Typical home networks use a closed-source Internet Service Provider supplied router/firewall and contain no restrictions on communications between clients within the network. The widespread deployment of network-connected appliances, control systems, lighting, etc, means that this design is insecure. This talk will cover the basics of networking, including why and how segregation of different types of network clients and traffic can be achieved to increase privacy and security.

We have learned that Math might be our last defence line against a real existing all-encompassing surveillance. One central challenge in this conflict is to combine authentication and anonymity. Number theory provides us many tools to create really surprising technologies for social communication. A lot of these technologies have not yet been brought to the world of concrete implementations. This has the implication that some ideas which have been presented years ago are not covered by patents ...

Remember the good old fun sport, where people bought random hard drives from ebay and did forensics on them? Did you know you can do the same thing with used IoT devices too? Most end-users have no idea what kind of information their devices are storing and how to securely clean their devices (if that even is possible). Lets explore together what the risks are and how we can extract that data.

i'll show how the average developer (like me) can secure their software and systems by automatically checking for known vulnerabilities and security issues as part of their CI-Toolchain. The Talk will introduce basic security knowhow, then show how you can use Open Source Frameworks to check for vulnerable dependencies, containers and (web-)APIs in a live demo
