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.
