Writing Viruses for Fun, not Profit
Stopping viruses is hard. They're clever, evolve, and become more resilient over time.
So let's write one! We'll see how they hide, how they propagate.
In this presentation, Ben takes you on a live-demo journey of self-replication, cryptographic obfuscation, and payload delivery.
Now you're thinking like a virus writer, you can anticipate which areas of your applications need hardening. Just remember, we're doing it for good, not profit!
