======FRIENDS Research Projects======
Welcome to the FRIENDS research wiki.  Basically, this is just a place for us to put up information about our past and present research projects.  Older projects might not have a wiki page, so you may need to check the old pages at [[http://cairo.cs.purdue.edu/projects|our old projects page]] for a complete list.

  * [[Code Injection]] -- A short work showing the feasibility of constructing a Harvard memory architecture on a per process basis and the applicability to code injection prevention.
  * [[NICKLE]] -- Kernel rootkit prevention on unmodified operating systems using a virtual machine monitor.
  * [[Process Coloring]] -- Leveraging OS level information flows for intrusion detection.
  * [[DSRAND|Data Structure Layout Randomization]] -- Polymorphing Software By Randomizing Data Structure Layout.
  * [[AutoFormat]] -- Automatic Protocol Format Reverse Engineering Through Context-Aware Monitored Execution.
  * [[REWARDS]] --  Automatic Reverse Engineering of Data Structures from Binary Execution.
  * [[LiveDM]] -- Reliable Kernel Malware Defense using a Safe and Temporal View of Dynamic Kernel Memory.
