Breaking the Chain

Posted by James Forshaw, Wielder of Bolt Cutters. Much as we’d like it to be true, it seems undeniable that we’ll never fix all security bugs just by looking for them. One of most productive ways to dealing with this fact is to implement exploit mitigations. Project Zero considers mitigation work...
