Attacks on real-time embedded systems can endanger lives and critical infrastructure.
Despite this, techniques for securing embedded systems software have not been widely …

With the rapid development of embedded systems, users and services have been greatly
facilitated while also experiencing security threats as a result of cyber-attacks and system …

In this paper, we propose a framework called Contego-TEE to secure Internet-of-Things (IoT)
edge devices with timing requirements from control spoofing attacks where an adversary …

For many embedded systems, such as automotive electronic systems, security has become
a pressing challenge. Limited resources and tight timing constraints often make it difficult to …

While trusted execution environments (TEE) provide industry standard security and isolation,
its implementation through secure monitor calls (SMC) attribute to large time overhead and …

With the rapid deployment of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), security has become a more
critical problem than ever before, as such devices are interconnected and have access to a …

Real-Time systems are defined not only by their logical correctness but also timeliness.
Modern real-time systems, such as those controlling industrial plants or the flight controller …

Today's safety-critical Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are networked with distributed
sensing, control, and actuation components, and external network connectivity to …

While recent studies addressed security attacks in real-time embedded systems, most of
them assumed prior knowledge of parameters of periodic tasks, which is not realistic under …

This dissertation explores several challenges that plague the hardware-software co-design
of popular resource constrained real-time embedded systems. We specifically tackle existing …
