I’ve been invited to speak at ToorCon 9 in San Diego next month. My topic will be Context-keyed Payload Encoding in which I introduce a new method of keying an encoder which is based entirely on contextual information that is predictable or known about the target by the attacker and constructible or recoverable by the decoder stub when executed at the target. An active observer of the attack traffic, however, should be unable to decode the payload due to lack of the contextual keying information.
