Let's review some OpenBSD mitigations, Brian Callahan
2026-06-03 @ 18:45 local (22:45 UTC) - Backroom of Brass Monkey 55 Little
West 12th St
Remote participation: Plans are to stream via NYC*BUG website. Q&A will be
via IRC on libera.chat channel #nycbug - please preface your questions with
'[Q]'.

How do we know that security mitigations actually work? How often should we
review code to ensure they are continuing to provide?

Following two recent publications, let’s explore some of OpenBSD’s anti-ROP
mitigations. We will explore what they do, how to test they work, how to
port them to other operating systems, and how to understand larger
questions about security mitigations. You’ll leave having a deeper
appreciation for OpenBSD’s sustained security track record.

Brian is a long-time face in the *BSD world. While he claims
semi-retirement from OpenBSD development, in reality he probably spends
even more time on it getting students excited about the BSDs. He is the
Director of the Monmouth University Cybersecurity Research Center, where
here leads quantum cybers ecurity and other security research.

To get to the backroom, you must enter the front door, follow the long bar
on your left, and walk all the way to the back. At the rear of the
BrassMonkey, you will see an alcove for the 3 bathrooms our room is off to
your right.
