Next up, Prossimo wants to give Network Time Protocol (NTP) the memory-safe treatment. Once all network-facing services have been hardened, I wonder what the next lowest hanging fruit is. Perhaps there will be so many layers of defence by then that the cost of creating an exploit will be more than the value that can be obtained from using it.
