Embedded systems are widely used for implementing diverse Internet-of-Things (IoT)
applications. These applications often deal with secret/sensitive data and encryption keys …

With the growing popularity of edge computing and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, there is
an increased need for secure computation on embedded devices. Typically, embedded …

In this paper, we investigate the impact of priority assignment on schedule-based attacks in
fixed-priority real-time systems. Through the schedule-based attacks, attackers may …

Covert channels enable information leakage between security domains that should be
isolated by observing execution differences in shared hardware. These channels can …

The massive parallelism and resource sharing embodying today's cloud business model not
only exacerbate the security challenge of timing channels, but also undermine the viability of …

We aim to provide trusted time measurement mechanisms to applications and cloud
infrastructure deployed in environments that could harbor potential adversaries, including …

Recent real-time systems have been gradually connected externally through the Internet. As
each subsystem constituting a system has been developed from different vendors, the …

Modern Internet-of-Things devices are vulnerable to attacks targeting outgoing actuation
commands that modify their physical behaviors. We present a “selective checking” …

Abstract Real-Time Systems (RTS) have gained prominence in new domains such as
autonomous cars, drones, and the Internet-of-Things (IoT). RTS have stringent timing …

R eal-time embedded systems (RTESs) have been widely used in modern society. And it is
also very common to find them in safety and security critical applications, such as …
