Rob and Jason are joined by Matt Butler to discuss his perspective on the ISO Cologne meeting and Secure Coding. Matthew Butler is a security researcher who has been using C++ professionally since 1990. He has spent the past three decades as a systems architect and software engineer developing systems for network security, law enforcement and national defense. He primarily works in signals intelligence and security on platforms ranging from embedded micro-controllers to FPGAs to large-scale, real-time platforms. He is on the staff of both CppCon and C++Now as well as a member of the C++ Standards Committee. He spends most of his time in EWG, SG12 (Undefined Behavior and Vulnerabilities), SG14 (Low Latency) and, now, SG21 (Contracts). He is also a member of WG23 (Programming Language Vulnerabilities). He prefers the role of predator when dealing with hackers and lives in the Rocky Mountains with his wife and daughter. News What happened to C++20 Contracts?
