address space layout randomization
Address space layout randomization (ASLR) is a security technique used to protect computer systems from certain types of attacks by randomizing the memory locations of key system components. It makes it difficult for attackers to predict or exploit these memory locations, thereby enhancing the overall security and resilience of the system.
