Just a few days left to apply to our PhD and PostDoc positions available at @vu5ec. If you love low-level systems hacking and would you like to work at a top systems security research group in Amsterdam, consider applying: workingat.vu.nl/vacancies/phd-…
This took a significant amount of time and money, and now we know what DRAM vendors are doing in their sense amplifiers! Lots of research opportunities moving forward. All the images and the reverse engineered circuits are now publicly available.

Oh, it seems the video of my NDSS keynote is now online: youtube.com/watch?v=vhj2We… "Corrupted Memories of Memory Corruption: Offensive Security, Academia, and the Rest of the World"
Should we lose hope already on Rowhammer attacks? Andrea Di Dio from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam is showing us at #NDSS23 that it is feasible to devise a software-based design to mitigate ECC-aware Rowhammer attacks.
Happy to share that my latest paper, Copy-on-Flip, has been accepted @NDSSSymposium. If you're interested in #Rowhammer defenses you can check it out here:download.vusec.net/papers/cof_nds…. Big thanks to the other authors who helped out on the paper: Koen Koning, @herbertbos @c_giuffrida.
🏆 SIAMO NOI, SIAMO NOI, I CAMPIONI DELL'ITALIA SIAMO NOI! 🇮🇹 🏆 #SassuoloMilan #SempreMilan #AlwaysWithYou
Buzzing to announce that I have completed my MSc and have started my PhD at @vu5ec last week. I am very grateful for the opportunity given and thrilled to continue to do research on topics I am passionate about.
Please vaccinate. I have no desire to learn the entire Greek alphabet.
📢 THE TIME HAS COME📢 Today I make public ALL *recordings* and updated slides (+ FAQ) for my mobile security class, MOBISEC 2020! Everything is available, for free, at: mobisec.reyammer.io/slides! Few words about this release in a short thread 👇
OK I didn't appreciate how jam-packed this thing is from @iFixit teardown photos. Also it's 0.3mm PCB so I'm pretty sure I broke some solder joints getting it out. Test pads are accessible w/o removing PCB so if this one isn't working will test another one.
New motivational blogpost + slides, this time on self-confidence, the noob mindset, and tip & tricks for CTFs! (Target audience: young students) 'From Noob to Less Noob: "Wisdom" from 10 years of CTFs' reyammer.io/blog/2021/04/0… Hope you find at least one good idea, enjoy! :-)
Cool write-up about rowhammer + flip feng shui exploitation.
