Errata Security Research Prototype Development Publications
Research is the basis for everything Errata Security produces. Exploits developed for the testing of Hacker Eye View reports are also used by our professional services and product testing teams. Techniques for product testing are used to develop evasion techniques that fuel exploit development for Hacker Eye View reports and to be used by professional services. Real world information gathered by our consultants is applied to both product testing and Hacker Eye View analysis.
