A walk-through of some history on post-ex eco-systems used by CS (PowerShell, Reflective DLLs, .NET, and BOFs).
Ends with a coffee conversation talking about magician's guilds, security research, and ideas about what's next.

Say you're on a security engagement to test for unauthorized access to the crown jewels at Tiffany's. Do you go for the vault? No. You go for the chandelier. It's priceless.

Just finished James Forshaw's Windows Security Internals, and talk about a wild ride.
