New software continuously scrambles code to foil cyber attacks: Technique sets a deadline on hackers to severely limit chances of success : As long as humans are writing software, there will be coding mistakes for malicious hackers to exploit.

A new program called Shuffler tries to preempt such attacks by allowing programs to continuously scramble their code as they run, effectively closing the window of opportunity for an attack.
