VB2019 presentation: A deep dive into iPhone exploit chains

Posted by    on   Jan 10, 2020

One of the biggest security stories of 2019 was the use of advanced iOS and Android exploit chains against China’s Uighur minority, first uncovered by Google’s Project Zero with more details supplied by Volexity.

In a last-minute presentation at VB2019 in London, John Bambenek of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign discussed details of these campaigns. John looked at how the attacks adjusted their techniques to compromise iPhone devices and also put the campaigns into their wider context.

Today we release the recording of John's presentation.
