He has made it an obsession to figure out how stealth malware, such as rootkits, can be so well hidden in software and hardware that few are ever likely to find it. Her “Blue Pill” attack against Microsoft’s Vista kernel protection mechanism, which brought a crowded room of security geeks at Black Hat to a standing ovation in 2006, was just her first revelation publicly to show how easy it is for a dangerous code to hide in plain sight.

DAN KAMINSKY security researcher and director of penetration testing at ioactive

He discovered software and service providers to patch a flaw in 2008 in the DNS protocol, which if exploited, would have led to mass disruption of the Internet.

ZANE LACKEY senior security consultant, ISEC partners

He digs into flaws in mobile and VoIP systems, some of his public talks and demos about compromising VoIP systems have been so detailed that chief information security officers at major corporations said they couldn’t advocate investing in VoIP until the issues raised were addressed by vendors.

CHRISTOPHER TARNOVSKYresearch principal  engineer, flylogic

Tarnovsky makes use of specialized tools in his lab to bypass supposedly tamper-resistant hardware circuitry in semiconductors to gain root control to tap into data. According to Black Hat session, he did this recently with the Infineon processor with the Trusted Platform Module used in PCs, smart cards and even Microsoft’s Xbox. Others aren’t likely to duplicate his feats.
