Hackfest Communication

Theo de Raadt presents pledge, a new OpenBSD security mechanism that kills processes which exceed the system calls they declared they need. The talk was given late at night at Hackfest 2015.
HN points to it as the canonical overview of pledge and the ideas behind OpenBSD's exploit mitigations.
