KIT Windows Internals Proseminar (1,3)
Abstract:
In the past years, the amount of attacks on digital systems has increased steadily. We take a look at general techniques used by attackers to compromise Windows systems and some fundamental defense mechanisms against them. This paper will provide an overview of Microsoft’s latest additions to the security concept of the Windows operating system (OS), analyze inherent flaws in their design and take a brief look at already existing attacks.
