Yesterday Jonathan Ness gave a video interview for PaulDotcom Security that talked about EMET. It was mainly focused on its effectiveness against exploits.

Near the end, there was a mention/confirmation that a new beta of EMET 3.5 will be available sometime this month. The new beta will have additional deployment and configuration features. There will be new security benefits too but exact details were not provided.

Here is the link to the interview. It starts at approximately, 7 minutes 20 seconds:
