CSEC 3223 — Programming Embedded Systems
The course involves the design, coding, debugging, and implementation of programs for securing embedded systems. Embedded software vulnerabilities and secure programming methods are introduced through hands-on projects. Buffer overflow attacks are discussed. After completing the course content mapped to this knowledge unit, students will be able to develop programs that can be embedded into an OS kernel, such as a device driver, with the required complexity and sophistication to implement exploits for discovered vulnerabilities. Students will be able to write a program that implements a network stack to manage network communications.
