Abstract:
Unused instructions and no longer used instructions in a target application binary are determined. The target application binary is rewritten before and after runtime execution of the target application binary to remove the unused and no longer used instructions to reduce binary attack surface area for the runtime execution of the target application binary. Methods, computer systems, and computer program products are disclosed.
