        Nick will explore the security consequences of various types of
    programming errors made by those developing on Linux and other systems.
     Ways of avoiding such mistakes will be discussed, and I will consider
     some of the protective technologies currently available for Linux. The
    talk will be illustrated with live demonstrations of attack techniques.

    Nick teaches software engineering and computer security to students in
