Understanding Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) in RHEL
Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) is a Linux security feature that randomizes the location of key areas of a program's memory. This makes it harder for malicious actors to predict the specific areas to target in their attacks. Enabling ASLR can significantly reduce the risk of specific memory based exploits, common in buffer overflow attacks. Address Space Layout Randomization(ASLR) is a security technique that randomizes the memory locations of system and application processes each time they run.
