** Modifying a Binary Program Using C **
Understanding and changing a binary program file without its source code does not always require dedicated reverse engineering tools. In this session we will use the tools we use every day - a C compiler and the GDB debugger - to explore and modify a commercial game binary. We will see how to read the memory of another process, how to debug a program without its source file, how to view and understand the assembly code just enough to change it, and how to automate the process. This session is not about learning a new skill, but showing what you can do with what you already know.

* Uri Sivan *
Uri is one of Cato's first engineers and is now a team lead. Over the years, he has worked at Cato on implementing IPSec, TCP congestion control algorithms, and an in house language for security rules. Prior to Cato, Uri worked mainly in C/C++ and focused on low level development and optimization of server software. With 20 years of software development experience, he is a real industry veteran.

** Repo Convergence: How we Migrated Our Cross-Platform Project from Multiple Repositories to a Mono Repo **
The real case-study of how we migrated our C++ cross-platform project from multiple repositories to a single, converged, repository.
We will describe the initial motivation for this change, detail the various challenges we encountered along the way and show which tools did we used to overcome those challenges.
This presentation is valuable for anyone looking into similar transition but might be hesitating to get started.

* Shachar Or *
Shachar is a dev team leader in Cato's Access group. With more than 12 years of experience in software development, he is responsible for developing and delivering Cato’s reliable full-stack solution.
Shachar is highly passionate about technology, people, and how to connect them together. As such, he is always on the lookout for new technologies and methods to make working as a dev team more fun and productive.
