Binary analysis refers to the process where human analysts and/or automated systems scrutinize the underlying code in software to discover, exploit, and defend against malice and vulnerabilities, oftentimes without access to source code. Through protecting legacy software deployed in all types of devices and platforms in the modern world, binary analysis techniques are becoming more and more critical in making our everyday life and our society more secure.
A Workshop on Binary Analysis Research (BAR) will be co-located with the Network and Distributed System Security Symposium (NDSS), and held in San Diego, CA, USA, on February 18, 2018.
The Workshop aims to provide an interaction point for researchers doing work in binary program analysis, with half of the workshop dedicated to traditional paper sessions and the other half to a roundtable discussion among researchers, implementers, and end-users of binary analysis techniques. BAR has attracted attention of many researchers, especially tool and framework authors, who actively work to create cutting-edge techniques and build powerful tools. Here we are happy to announce that eight high-quality academic papers have been accepted to appear in the paper sessions of the workshop, with presenters from both academia and industry. Researchers and authors of several Continue reading
Happy Valentine's Day, Internet!
There’s a special place in our heart for all the open source projects that support the Internet and improve the lives of everyone in the developer community, and today seems like an appropriate time to express the gratitude we have for the non-profit / volunteer-run projects that hold everything together.
Cloudflare uses a lot of open source software and also contributes to open source. Informally, Cloudflare has already been upgrading the plans of certain eligible open source projects that have reached out to us or that we have interfaced with. Here are some of the projects whose landing pages are already protected by Cloudflare.

To really pay the goodwill forward, we want to make this opportunity common knowledge in the developer community. In 2018, we intend to provide free Cloudflare Pro Plan upgrades to eligible open source projects (subject to a case-by-case evaluation) that:
Are you an open source project using @Cloudflare? We want to give you a free Pro Plan to thank you for your work Continue reading
Vendor lock in with serverless might be more pressing than with containers.
The company’s automation management platform is based on the Salt open source project.
The software-defined storage platform is built on hyperconverged infrastructure.
Blockchain, alone, should drive attendance at this event.
A new white paper by ACG Research focuses on the data center (DC) switching infrastructure aspect of that ecosystem, showing that Lenovo’s switching combined with server solutions provide for the full spectrum for a data center strategy for enterprises and cloud providers.
In this History of Networking episode of Network Collective, Joel Halpern joins us to talk about the history of network modeling and policy based management in the standards bodies.
