Which technology should be implemented to increase the work effort required for buffer overflow attacks?

Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) randomizes the memory locations used by applications, making it significantly harder for attackers to predict where malicious payloads should be placed during buffer overflow attacks.

Buffer overflow exploits rely on predictable memory layouts. ASLR disrupts this predictability, increasing attacker effort and reducing exploit reliability.

The other options are either non-standard terms or unrelated to buffer overflow mitigation. ASLR is widely used in modern operating systems and is a key defensive control recommended by secure coding and system hardening guidelines.

ASLR does not eliminate vulnerabilities but raises the attack complexity, which is a core defensive strategy.
