From event founder Jeff Moss's own keynote address:
“Is there a way to sort of confirm immunity on a network, if you take care of your own equipment?” Moss asked. “This is an analogy I like, because if you think about how doctors approach problems, nobody gets up in the morning and says, ‘I’m going to cure cancer.'”
Similarly, security researchers don’t “wake up in the morning and cure memory corruption,” he noted.
While it’s unrealistic to cure cancer, it’s more realistic to be part of a team.
“If you also think about some of the other medical analogies like ‘do no harm,’ they also work well in our world,” Moss said. He cited core principles of “don’t harm users” and “don’t give away their privacy.”
