Microarchitectural vulnerabilities, such as Meltdown and Spectre, exploit subtle
microarchitecture state to steal the user's secret data and even compromise the operating …

Microarchitectural side-channel attacks have shaken the foundations of modern processor
design. The cornerstone defense against these attacks has been to ensure that security …

Software-based fault isolation (SFI) is a longstanding technique that allows isolation of one
or more processes from each other with minimal or no use of hardware protection …

While extensive research has been conducted on CPU cache side-channel attacks, the
landscape of similar studies on modern GPUs remains largely uncharted. In this paper, we …

Interrupts are critical hardware resources for OS kernels to schedule processes. As they are
related to system activities, interrupts can be used to mount various side-channel attacks (ie …

Apple silicon is the proprietary ARM-based processor that powers the mainstream of Apple
devices. The move to this proprietary architecture presents unique challenges in addressing …

A large body of work has demonstrated attacks that rely on the difference between CPUs'
nominal instruction set architectures and their actual (microarchitectural) implementations …

Deep neural networks (DNN) are increasingly deployed in heterogeneous hardware,
including high-performance devices like GPUs and low-power devices like mobile/IoT …

The sharing of hardware elements, such as caches, is known to introduce microarchitectural
side-channel leakage. One approach to eliminate this leakage is to not share hardware …

Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) is a crucial defense mechanism employed by
modern operating systems to mitigate exploitation by randomizing processes? memory …
