Docker in Production: A History of Failure
Introduction My first encounter with docker goes back to early 2015. Docker was experimented with to find out whether it could benefit us. At the time it wasn’t possible to run a container [i…
Local Reconstruction Codes — more precise storage model means less encoding overhead, and faster reconstruction/recovery time means there's less chance for other failures to happen while the system is vulnerable

note for Samsung users: every single protection measure in KNOX is broken, including KASLR, DFI, SELinux and RKP in general. Talk with details and end-to-end exploitation demos is expected July 27 at BH USA'17
Also there are two talks announced which demonstrate different but notably completely automated, AI-driven antivirus and IDS bypass techniques for Android and Windows, respectively. We're going into totally movieplot territory here :)
This is one solid advice, if hard to follow at times.
