This talk will discuss how we can leverage current/emerging techniques in infosec to advance our capabilities to hack shit/do research/write more secure code. Basically a "here is the awesome stuff we have now and massively underuse". Kinda broken into 3 bits - advanced exploitation techniques/RE techniques (SAT/SMT solvers, program synthesis), stuff we have now that makes writing secure code possibly easier (langsec, rust, mitigations), and stuff testers can leverage to get the job done better (data driven test cycles, collaborative testing, etc). The objective of this talk is to point out stuff people can go try out / use / look into for advancing the field a bit
