Description
Since the 1970s, the complexity of systems on a chip has grown significantly. In order to improve system performance, manufacturers are integrating an increasing number of heterogeneous components on a single silicon chip. The incorporation of these components renders SoCs highly versatile yet significantly complex. Their multipurpose nature makes them suitable for use in a variety of domains, including mobile telephony, informatics, military applications, and cloud computing. SoCs process personal data (such as contacts, health information, and credit card details) and also control critical systems (such as autonomous vehicles). This raises questions about the safety of these systems. SoCs represent a significant vulnerability for attackers seeking to steal critical information or inflict damage to the system. Inadvertent vulnerabilities introduced during the design phase provide an avenue for these attacks. Such vulnerabilities frequently arise from enhancements made to boost system performance. Given that security is often an afterthought in architectural design, it is not a comprehensive solution to all potential attacks. In this talk, we will emphasize the need to reverse the historical trend of designing integrated circuits without security as a primary consideration. We will then present a heterogeneous secure-by-design SoC architecture called TrustSoC.

Fine-grained dynamic partitioning against cache-based side channel attacks
Orateur : Nicolas Gaudin - Trasna
The growth of embedded systems takes advantage of architectural advances from modern processors to increase performance while maintaining a low power consumption. Among these advances is the introduction of cache memory into embedded systems. These memories speed up the memory accesses by temporarily storing data close to the execution core. Furthermore, data from different applications share the[…]-

Side-Channel Based Disassembly on Complex Processors: From Microachitectural Characterization to Probabilistic Models
Orateur : Julien Maillard - CEA
Side-Channel Based Disassembly (SCBD) is a category of Side-Channel Analysis (SCA) that aims at recovering information on the code executed by a processor through the observation of physical side-channels such as power consumption or electromagnetic radiations. While traditional SCA often targets cryptographic keys, SCBD focuses on retrieving assembly code that can hardly be extracted via other[…]-

PhaseSCA: Exploiting Phase-Modulated Emanations in Side Channels
Orateur : Pierre Ayoub - LAAS-CNRS
In recent years, the limits of electromagnetic side-channel attacks have been significantly expanded.However, while there is a growing literature on increasing attack distance or performance, the discovery of new phenomenons about compromising electromagnetic emanations remains limited. In this work, we identify a novel form of modulation produced by unintentional electromagnetic emanations: phase[…]-
