Micro-Architectural Attacks on Cyber-Physical Systems is coming at 09/30/2019 - 10:00am
KEC 1007 Mon, 09/30/2019 - 10:00am Heechul Yun Associate Professor, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Kansas Abstract: Micro-architectural attacks are a class of software attacks that targets hardware. Modern high performance computing hardware employs a variety of sophisticated microarchitectural components---multiple levels of caches, prefetchers, out-of-order speculative out-of-order execution engine, etc.---to improve performance. Micro-architectural attacks target the weaknesses in these microarchitectural components and can be used to leak secret, alter data, or delay the execution times of the critical real-time tasks. As safety-critical cyber-physical systems (CPS) are increasingly relying on high-performance hardware, microarchitectural attacks are becoming an important and serious threat to their safety and security. In this talk, I will present examples of microarchitectural attacks and our solutions to defend against these attacks in the context of CPS.
