Stephen Tomkinson, a security researcher for NCC, presented his research at the Securi-Tay conference at Abertay Univeristy in Scotland on Friday. At the event, he showed how he had been able to create a Blu-ray disc that detects the player it’s running on, and then chooses one of two exploits to install malware on the host computer.
