Hacking the Bionic Man

Presented at DEF CON 16 (2008), Unknown date/time (Unknown duration).

Science fiction or security in 2040? In this lecture we will discuss how security issues may impact the future, which may be confused with science fiction. Already today we find cyber-implants of different kinds embedded within the human machine. As security professionals we know there is no such things as perfect code, and security solutions are far from perfect. What will we be facing in 2040, and how might we defend ourselves - if at all.
