Concurrency Abstractions for Application Security
Offered By: GOTO Conferences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore concurrency abstractions for application security in this conference talk from GOTO Aarhus 2023. Delve into how ideas from the Erlang virtual machine compare to other languages and runtimes in meeting security requirements of modern networked applications. Learn about automatic memory management's role in eliminating security vulnerabilities, and examine the potential benefits of concurrency, isolation, and fault-tolerance abstractions. Investigate the trade-offs between these benefits and the lack of static type checking, and discuss remaining challenges in the field. Gain insights into Erlang, Elixir, and related technologies for building secure, scalable systems.
