AIX SECURITY EXPERT SELECTED TO PRESENT AT BLACK HAT 2010
-- Tim Shelton to speak on AIX Server Security
Dallas, Texas – June 22, 2010 – HAWK Network Defense (www.hawkdefense.com) today
announced that the company’s VP of Research and Development, Tim Shelton was selected to
present at Black Hat USA 2010. Shelton will speak about Advanced AIX Heap Exploitation
Methods. Black Hat USA 2010, known as the premiere venue for elite security researchers, will
be held at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas, from July 27 to July 28.
Shelton’s presentation is timely given the amount of attacks on enterprises over the past
decade. “Many of the largest enterprises in the world run their businesses on AIX systems,”
states AIX reseller Phil Godwin, the Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Clear
Technologies (www.cleartechnologies.net), “as a result, it is imperative that security gaps on
these systems be mitigated.”
Shelton’s presentation will expose the security risk that could potentially halt the productivity of
some of the largest companies in the world. His presentation will reveal Heap Exploitation
Methods that prey on AIX servers, delineate the magnitude of the risk, and provide insights to
limit future exposure.
