Inhalt
The seminar will be organized like a scientific conference. Students will deep-dive into the security concepts of their kernel of choice and create a report, similar to a scientific paper, that is peer-reviewed by their fellow students and presented in the plenum.
Possible kernels will include:
- LittleKernel / Zircon BSD
- Redox
- ReactOS / Windows
- seL4/Fiasco
Students can propose other kernels that they would like to work on. Please write a short motivation about its specific (security) features and why you would like to investigate on it. Send it to oliver.braunsdorf@aisec.fraunhofer.de
