The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) provides rights on our data: access, rectification, objection, etc. However, this regulation is not binding on how we can exercise these rights. Data controllers have therefore deployed various methods to authenticate subject requests. We have analyzed how this authentication process can fail and examined its consequences. Our study shows that a key concept is missing in the GDPR: Proof of ownership for our data.

    Microarchitectural optimizations, such as caches and speculative out-of-order execution, are essential for achieving high performance. However, these same mechanisms also open the door to attacks that can undermine software-enforced security policies. The current gold standard for defending against such attacks is the constant-time programming discipline, which prohibits secret-dependent control[…]

    The padlock shown in the URL bar of our favorite web browser indicates that we are connected using a secure HTTPS connection and providing some sense of security. Unfortunately, the reality is slightly more complex. The trust model of the underlying Web PKI is invalid, making TLS a colossus with feet of clay. In this talk, we will dive into the trust model of the web PKI ecosystem to understand[…]
