摘要
A method for changing a processor instruction randomly, covertly, and uniquely, so that the reverse process can restore it faithfully to its original form, making it virtually impossible for a malicious user to know how the bits are changed, preventing them from using a buffer overflow attack to write code with the same processor instruction changes into said processor's memory with the goal of taking control of the processor. When the changes are reversed prior to the instruction being executed, reverting the instruction back to its original value, malicious code placed in memory will be randomly altered so that when it is executed by the processor it produces chaotic, random behavior that will not allow control of the processor to be compromised, eventually producing a processing error that will cause the processor to either shut down the software process where the code exists to reload, or reset.
