ShmooCon Videos -- Backbone Fuzzing by Raven

I was watching some of the 2007 ShmooCon video's and came across one about Backbone Fuzzing.

This one caught my eye, I have been hearing quite a bit about fuzzing lately and I got interested in it, since it applies to the field of Network Security and Software Engineer. Since any data I would be receiving over the wire could be fuzzed I would need proper input validation, studying what one is will be subjected to could help avoid mistakes.

I also believe that if she does find real flaws in Cisco's IOS and other implementations it could mean big problems for the internet. She is going after the core protocols that run the internet, and would cause it to die a pretty harsh death if they suddenly stopped working.

Looking forward, the MPLS stuff ought to bring up very interesting results!
