Description

Overview

This is a 2-day instructor-led workshop by a pioneer in the field. It is specifically geared towards mastering the arcane art of ELF binary analysis. Today, Linux and UNIX flavor OS's are ubiquitous and ELF is the most commonly used standard executable format. This training will cover the core fundamentals of the ELF format and explore facets including security, viruses, exploitation, reverse engineering, software protection and anti-tamper techniques. This is valuable for reverse engineers who want to gain deep insight into ELF binaries for malware analysis. This is also valuable for a software engineer who wants to understand how your software is attacked and how it can be protected. Over the course of two days, participants will participate in an in-depth and engaging discussion on ELF internals and complete various lab exercises that will have them on the road to becoming UNIX binary hackers. The training makes use of custom tools designed by the trainer, which come complete with source code availability for further learning and modification purposes.

This workshop is presented by Leviathan, taught by Ryan "elfmaster" O'Neill.

An example of Ryan's research can be found at http://www.leviathansecurity.com/white-papers/extending-the-elf-core-format-for-forensics-snapshots/
