Cloakware Executive to Speak on Software Protection at SD Best Practices Conference 2006 on Thursday, September 14, 2006

James Stibbards, Director of Systems Engineering to Present on Intellectual
 Property Protection and How to Make Software Self-Reliant on Systems That
                           Are 'Out in the Wild'

    VIENNA, Va., Aug. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by
Cloakware:
    WHAT:

     James Stibbards, Director, Systems Engineering, will present at this
     year's Software Development Best Practices Conference 2006 on the topic
     of "Software Protection: Making Software Self-Reliant."  This session
     falls under the Design & Architecture track.

     Most of today's systems depend on some combination of trusted people,
     processes, platforms, and products to provide an environment in which
     programs can execute with relative safety. How do you protect the logic
     of programs and the data they are processing on systems that are "out in
     the wild?" How do you enforce security policies on systems where the
     attackers have complete physical access, and may have the ability to
     rewrite or replace portions of the underlying operating system? Policies
     of data confidentiality, protecting program logic confidentiality
     (Intellectual Property protection), and ensuring "integrity of
     processing" all present unique problems beyond simple access control
     paradigms. This session will review the current state of practice and
     practical research in data and key hiding, software tamper-resistance,
     and software self-protection.
