Abstract

Windows is a complex operating system which can make finding security vulnerabilities difficult as it’s hard to know where to start. This presentation will give a quick introduction to all the interesting areas of Windows into which you can look. It will also introduce some of the tools and techniques I use for finding new security vulnerabilities.
