Abstract

Computer crime Computer security Computer viruses Computer worms Consumer electronics Embedded computing Embedded software Home appliances Mobile handsets Personal digital assistants
Our technological society has become more and more dependent on software that is used to automate everyday processes. This dependence increasingly exposes us to security threats that originate from malicious software (malware) such as computer viruses and worms and software vulnerability exploits such as remote execution of code or denial of service attacks. Moreover, this exposure is not limited to computer systems but is spreading to common appliances such as mobile phones, PDAs and consumer electronics such as media centers, personal video recorders, etc. since a growing number of these products are made extensible and adaptable by means of embedded software.
