I have been researching the cat and mouse game that hardware manufacturers and hackers/users have been playing since the dawn of consumer electronics.
But the cat doesn't things easy for us as companies learn from their mistakes and introducing more security migrations in the meanwhile, I'm concerned about the future of underground hacking scenes as Intel has plans of thwarting ROP (which most modern hacks rely on) though architectural changes, it will most likely be implemented in ARM as well if it all goes well like SMEP was introduced in ARMv8 as PXN a few years back.
Is it just a matter of time before the cat has the ultimate victory as we have software that are practically impenetrable (aka unhackable) for everyone but the most devoted malware authors?
This forum and and other underground scenes are great, but those days are probably coming to an end in the foreseeable future.
