Send us a textFeeling the frustration of constantly battling memory-related vulnerabilities in your code? What if I told you there's an unexpected twist in the story that could change everything? Join me as we explore the captivating journey of transitioning to memory-safe languages in programming, and uncover the game-changing solution that awaits. But that's a story for another time...Our special guest is Loren Kohnfelder and joined by Roger Grimes.Loren Kohnfelder, a distinguished figure in the realm of cybersecurity, is widely regarded as a trailblazer in the development of PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). His significant contributions to the RSA algorithm and its application in real-world scenarios have solidified his position as a thought leader in digital security. With extensive expertise in encryption and network systems, Loren offers a wealth of knowledge for developers seeking to navigate the transition to memory-safe languages. His pioneering work serves as a cornerstone in understanding the complexities of cybersecurity and the pivotal role of memory-safe languages in fortifying software against vulnerabilities. Loren's profound insights and experiences make him an exceptional guest, providing a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of digital security and its relevance to memory-safe languages.I think if there are specific pieces of code that are well contained and you can rewrite those in a memory safe language, that's a fine thing to do. But, for example, if you've got a library that's in the middle of a bunch of memory unsafe language code, and you write that into memory safe code, you're going to have bridge code connecting across that boundary, because you obviously can't just slip from memory safe land into memory unsafe land, where you're now taking on risk without managing those borders. - Loren KohnfelderIn this episode, you will be able to:Uncover the secrets of PKI with Loren Kohnfelder.Learn the benefits of transitioning to memory-safe languages.Overcome the challenges of rewriting large codebases.Explore the feasibility of adopting memory-safe languages in programming.Connect with usWebsite: securitymasterminds.buzzsprout.comKnowBe4 Resources:KnowBe4 Blog: https://blog.knowbe4.comJames McQuiggan - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jmcquigganRoger Grimes: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rogeragrimes/Erich Kron - https://www.linkedin.com/in/erichkronJelle Wieringa - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jellewieringaJavvad Malik: https://www.linkedin.com/in/javvadMusic Composed by: Brian Sanyshyn - https://www.briansanyshynmusic.comAnnouncer: Sarah McQuiggan - https://www.sarahmcquiggan.com
