Rapid advances in quantum computing, together with the announcement by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to define new standards for digitalsignature …

Smart contracts are applications that execute on blockchains. Today they manage billions of
dollars in value and motivate visionary plans for pervasive blockchain deployment. While …

When DNS was created, nobody expected that it would have become the base for the digital
economy and a prime target for cybercriminals. And nobody expected that one main asset of …

We present an effective implementation of the Prime+ Probe side-channel attack against the
last-level cache. We measure the capacity of the covert channel the attack creates and …

• Increase noise parameter for Kyber512 In the round-2 submission of Kyber, the decryption
error for Kyber512 was rather conservative, while at the same time, there were requests to …

Microarchitectural timing channels expose hidden hardware states though timing. We survey
recent attacks that exploit microarchitectural features in shared hardware, especially as they …

Sharing memory pages between non-trusting processes is a common method of reducing
the memory footprint of multi-tenanted systems. In this paper we demonstrate that, due to a …

Cache side channel attacks are serious threats to multi-tenant public cloud platforms. Past
work showed how secret information in one virtual machine (VM) can be extracted by …

Numerous recent works have experimentally shown that Intel Software Guard Extensions
(SGX) are vulnerable to cache timing and page table side-channel attacks which could be …

Potentially dangerous cryptography errors are well-documented in many applications.
Conventional wisdom suggests that many of these errors are caused by cryptographic …
