Show Notes
Join James Wilson in this solo podcast as he takes a (ridiculously) deep dive into the Coruna exploit kit. James was a software engineer and senior manager at Apple for many years, so he has an intimate knowledge of iOS internals. He even worked alongside the people who wrote the software that the Coruna kit exploits!
This long-form solo podcast follows the chain of exploits from watering-hole website right through to full device compromise with many incredible leaps over security boundaries along the way. You’ve heard Coruna described as a sophisticated, nation state-grade exploit kit, and James will explain to you why that description is fitting.
