I'll be offering an Introduction to Linux Kernel Exploitation training in English, to be held online next year (likely September). This will be a whole-month training, totaling 48 hours split across 12 sessions. We will have live classes with me, and the sessions will be recorded and provided to students within 24 hours for those who can't join live. The classes will happen on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 07:00 PM to 11:00 PM (GMT-3), meaning 4 hours of class per day. The training is for people interested in getting started in Linux kernel exploitation. We will cover the fundamentals: computer architecture, paging and segmentation, C programming, assembly, the Linux ecosystem, and development/APIs, and then how to exploit vulnerabilities and bypass mitigations (SMEP, SMAP, and KASLR). Besides the training, we provide support for students as soon as they enroll. We have an exclusive mailing list where I share a lot of content—usually much more detailed than what I share here. The mailing list is also used to help better prepare those with less experience several months before the training happens. Even though the training is focused on Linux kernel exploitation, I believe it's interesting even for those not looking to work directly in research. I talk about many related topics, from system performance and development to my 10+ years of experience in security research, malware/rootkits in general, and more. The class will be limited to 10 seats, as this will be my first time teaching it in English. I'll be pleased to help as many people as possible not just learn more, but truly grow and reach the next level in their careers. Would you be interested?
