Apple + Security & Privacy

This year’s CanSecWest security conference is featuring, as in previous years, its Pwn2Own competition, where hackers attempt to “pwn” or get control of certain devices. This years competition is in two parts: one focusing on browsers, including Apple’s Safari, and another for mobile devices, including the iPhone.

Some presentations have been confirmed, with scheduling information to follow, including Dino Dai Zovi & Charlie Miller, who will discuss “Hacking Macs for Fun and Profit”. As always, this conference should provide a number of interesting tidbits about Mac security.
