🦀 How unsafe {} is Rust?
Matt Suiche
Magnet Forensics
Abstract
Rust 🦀 is the most loved language by Stack Overflow Developer Survey for 7 years in a row, and its adoption rate by developers keeps growing. Rust is probably one of the most important programming languages of our generation due to its versatility and adoption from open-source firmwares, kernel drivers to web services.
I will share my experience as a software engineer who switched from C/C++ to Rust for product development including the benefits and limitations as a software engineer - but I will also share my thoughts as a security researcher on existing, and potential future security issues that may be encountered.
