dc.description.abstract	Modern society depends on reliable computer systems, yet hardly a day passes without news of a new failure of computer security. Whether enticed by profit or by politics, professional hacking organizations rival mainstream software companies in their technical and process sophistication. Professional malware and computer exploitation relies on the ability to take control of computer systems through software vulnerabilities. This seminar will explain software vulnerabilities and exploits through example. The seminar will explain techniques to create secure software, and will demonstrate GTRI work in the area of software assurance as applied to enterprise operating systems and embedded systems.	en_US
