Atlanta, GA, USA – August 7, 2013

Charlie Miller of Twitter�s Product Security Team leads the pack of notable and industry-leading speakers set to present at Hacker Halted, EC-Council�s offensive cyber security and hacking conference. Miller was the first with a public remote exploit for both the iPhone and G1 Android phones, and is a four-time winner of the CanSecWest Pwn2Own hacking competition. A PhD from the University of Notre Dame, as well as an accomplished author, Charlie Miller spent 5 years at the NSA and has been a consultant at Accuvant Labs and Independent Security Evaluators.

Miller will discuss how mobile operating systems defend themselves as well as give examples of mobile operating system exploits.

Miller stated, �I�ll clarify how easy (or hard) it is to write exploits and attack mobile devices, from the perspective of someone who has written exploits for most mobile platforms.� Miller went on to say, �I�ll also outline how easy (or hard) it is to write mobile malware and what malware of this kind can do. Finally, I�ll address mobile security software and how it works (or doesn�t).�

By the end of this talk, you�ll be in a better position to determine the risk mobile devices present and differentiate the reality from the hype.
