Wietse presents lessons learned about persistence of information in file systems and in main memory of modern computers - how long information persists and why. The results are based on measurements of a variety of UNIX and Linux systems, with some results for Windows/XP, including how to recover encrypted files without knowing the key.

The presentation will try to present current challenges in detecting advanced forms of stealth malware and explain why current detection approaches, as used in commercial A/V or IDS products, are insufficient. The author will try to convince the audience that detection is no less important then prevention and that we need a systematic approach to implement a good compromise detector, instead of a bunch of "hacks" as we have today.
