We're pleased to have Ed Felten, a CS professor at Princeton and the jury lead for the Native Client Security Contest, here to tell you more about the contest and how you can get involved.A little while ago, I was invited by my colleague Brad Chen, to help him and his team organize the
Native Client Security Contest, a competition that challenges participants to identify security exploits in
Native Client, a new research technology from Google. To be honest, I would have enjoyed being one of the contestants as I'd love to try identifying a few exploits myself; however I was asked to settle for being the jury chair instead.
