Message-ID: Dear all, The queue has dried again. As we cannot desalinate lectures from sea water (unlike drinking water), we are wondering whether it's time we switched to a monthly meeting, marking some an of an era... 1. If you are in a favor - do nothing. We're heading this way anyhow. 2. If you oppose - please step forward and give a talk. The queue is empty, and you are all welcome to give a talk.

The Facebook event (requires no registration for viewing): https://www.facebook.com/events/402607379905506 *** Note that it's NOT on Haifux' regular time slot nor room. *** Abstract ====== We will discuss how binary files are born and created, loaded and executed, about the creation of object files, files linkage and the differences between Linux format (ELF) and Windows format (PE) of such files. These will be combined with both information security and attack methods and techniques: what a vicious compiler can do, how viruses and other malwares create problems and more. As the lecture will be technical, we will assume knowledge in C. Highly recommended (but not necessary) is some knowledge in OS and/or computer architecture. The lecture will be held in Hebrew, in Taub 7 (1st floor). -------------------------- Regards, Eli -- Web: http://www.billauer.co.il
