The first edition of this award-winning book attracted a wide audience. This second edition is
both a joy to read and a useful classroom tool. Unlike traditional textbooks, it requires no …

MicroArchitectural Analysis (MA) techniques, more specifically Simple Branch Prediction
Analysis (SBPA) and Instruction Cache Analysis, have the potential of disclosing the entire …

This paper presents Themis, an end-to-end static analysis tool for finding resource-usage
side-channel vulnerabilities in Java applications. We introduce the notion of epsilon …

Thirty years after RSA was first publicized, it remains an active research area. Although
several good surveys exist, they are either slightly outdated or only focus on one type of …

Software based side-channel attacks allow an unprivileged spy process to extract secret
information from a victim (cryptosystem) process by exploiting some indirect leakage of “side …

Software cache-based side channel attacks present serious threats to modern computer
systems. Using caches as a side channel, these attacks are able to derive secret keys used …

Microarchitectural resources such as caches and predictors can be used to leak information
across security domains. Significant prior work has demonstrated attacks and defenses for …

Covert channels through shared processor resources provide secret communication
between two malicious processes: the trojan and the spy. In this article, we classify, analyze …

TLS and SSH are two of the most commonly used protocols for securing Internet traffic. Many
of the implementations of these protocols rely on the cryptographic primitives provided in the …

The paper presents a new aspect within that PC oriented side-channel attack arena.
Specifically, we present a novel square vs. multiplication oriented side-channel attack which …
