I am going to present a tutorial session on the subject of fuzzing at QAI’s STC2009 on Nov 23 at Bangalore.
Details of the tutorial can be found at the following link:
FUZZING - Ensuring Software Security through Automated Data Corruption
My article on File Fuzzing, which deals with software testing via corruption of file contents, has been chosen to be published as a series of two articles in the Indian Testing Board’s iTest newsletter.
Part 1 is available in the Sep issue @ http://istqb.in/newsletter/ITB_NL0909.pdf
Since its publication in the beginning of this year, the book “Fuzzing for Software Security Testing and Quality Assurance” by Ari Takanen, Jared DeMott and Charlie Miller has been on my wishlist. Why wouldn’t it be! It’s the first fuzzing book which mentions right there in the title that fuzzing is meant for software testers, a point which I have been suggesting in each of my presentations on the subject across all testing conferences in India.
Finding my name as a paper presenter on the subject of fuzzing at CONQUEST 2009, Ari Takanen wrote to me and was kind enough to send me a signed copy of the book.
Look out for a review of the book on my blog very soon.
