Platform agnostic binary coverage maximization

Software security hinges on the need for developers to find vulnerabilities in their software before malicious users do. However, input test suites are manually intensive to produce and often fail to maximize coverage. This generally prescribes the use of a fuzzer. Yet, modern techniques also fail e...
