Black Hat Europe: ‘Hardening Windows 8 Apps for the Windows Store’

Bill Sempf presented “Hardening Windows 8 Apps for the Windows Store” at Black Hat Europe. Developers must declare “capabilities” that are subject to Windows Store Policy in order to use features of the Windows 8 OS. Developers should always apply least privilege to apps that only have the capabilities they need to use.
