The DieHard Attack US

A U.S. PC researcher and a Microsoft specialist have contrived a project that radically diminishes application crashes and can keep some writes of assaults by changing the way applications use memory.

Engineers Emery Berger, a PC researcher from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Microsoft's Ben Zorn, have made DieHard uninhibitedly accessible for noncommercial use at their Web website.

The issues Berger needed to address were created by the way that regardless of the colossal measure of memory introduced in today's PCs, "developers are as yet written work code as though memory is hard to come by".

That prompts mistakes, for example, twofold liberates, invalid liberates, and different sorts of flood. Berger said DieHard disposes of or makes less hazardous a number of these issues by making pieces of memory accessible at different areas, and doling out locations arbitrarily.
