Matthew J. Harmons (ISC)2 Twin Cities Chapter presentation Java Exploits: Offense and Defense, delivered on October 24, 2012, examines the pervasive risk of client-side Java vulnerabilities and outlines why these flaws represent a critical attack vector for organizations. Harmon, drawing on his two decades of security experience, highlights how the Java sandbox can be bypassed via reflection and code injectiondemonstrated by high-impact exploits documented by researchers like Joshua Drake and Adam Gowdiakand underscores the urgency of addressing these pervasive weaknesses.
