HiSolutions📢New in our Research-Blog: A Tale of Practical Keylogger ForensicsOn a recent engagement, an interesting hardware side quest popped up. A client had found a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/keylogger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#keylogger</a> and, naturally, Cass Rebellin and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@jrt" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@jrt</a> wanted to know what the adversary had seen and if they could gather any useful traces towards the perpetrator.

CHERI AllianceOne of our founding directors, Mike Eftimakis, sat down with Akshaya Asokan from Information Security Media Group (ISMG) to explore how CHERI is helping tackle one of cybersecurity’s biggest challenges: memory safety.CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) is a hardware-based approach to security, designed to prevent around 70% of today’s common vulnerabilities. Backed by industry leaders and the UK government, we're working to ensure global adoption across the electronics supply chain.Watch the interview to learn more about:💠 How CHERI addresses memory safety issues 💠 Common hardware supply chain vulnerabilities 💠 Progress on adoption by chipmakers 💠 Scalability challenges associated with CHERI🎥 Watch the full interview: <a href="https://www.bankinfosecurity.com/uks-cheri-alliance-expands-to-global-hardware-supply-chain-a-28942" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.bankinfosecurity.com/uks-cheri-alliance-expands-to-global-hardware-supply-chain-a-28942</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CHERI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CHERI</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CyberSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CyberSecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HardwareSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HardwareSecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MemorySafety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MemorySafety</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SecurityByDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SecurityByDesign</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/InfoSec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#InfoSec</a>
