"Kernel developers have always been concerned with fixing bugs, especially when those bugs have security implications. There's been an effort recently towards more proactive security efforts to eliminate the severity of certain types of bugs. This effort has been given the name the Kernel Self Protection Project (KSPP). The goal of this talk is to give a brief introduction to kernel security and discuss both the technical and non-technical challenges to making the kernel more secure, including why this hasn't happened sooner."
