Lightning Talk: Security Down to the Kernel
summary
Argues for shrinking the OS surface instead of stacking defenses, showing Talos Linux reduced to 12 binaries and a runtime with four processes to minimize attack paths; demonstrates firmware-to-kernel validation using TPM-backed secure boot and signed bootloaders so each stage attests the next; contrasts risk with the Sony CD rootkit example and explains that validated, minimal code plus chain-of-trust checks is what actually limits compromise.
