Countering code-injection attacks with instruction-set randomization
TL;DR: A new, general approach for safeguarding systems against any type of code-injection attack, by creating process-specific randomized instruction sets of the system executing potentially vulnerable software that can serve as a low-overhead protection mechanism, and can easily complement other mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the General Applicability of Instruction-Set Randomization
TL;DR: This work describes Instruction-Set Randomization (ISR), a general approach for safeguarding systems against any type of code-injection attack, and discusses three approaches (protection for Intel x86 executables, Perl scripts, and SQL queries), one from each of the above categories.

Sandboxing Applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a portable system that tracks file requests made by applications creating an access log, and uses the access log as a template to regulate file access requests.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Athens Affair
TL;DR: In 2005, Costas Tsalikidis, a 38-year-old Greek electrical engineer, was found hanged in his Athens loft apartment, an apparent suicide, which would prove to be merely the first public news of a scandal that would roil Greece for months.
