Tor provides low-latency anonymous and uncensored network access against a local or
network adversary. Due to the design choice to minimize traffic overhead (and increase the …

Timing side channels arise in software when a program's execution time can be correlated
with security-sensitive program input. Recent results on software side-channel detection …

Side-channels in software are an increasingly significant threat to the confidentiality of
private user information, and the static detection of such vulnerabilities is a key challenge in …

Numerous initiatives are encouraging website owners to enable and enforce TLS encryption
for the communication between the server and their users. Although this encryption, when …

Side channels are unintended pathways within target systems that leak internal target
information. Side-channel sensing (SCS) is the process of exploiting side channels to extract …

We present a black-box, dynamic technique to detect and quantify side-channel information
leaks in networked applications that communicate through a TLS-encrypted stream. Given a …

Secure implementation of cryptographic algorithms is an important area of research.
Cryptographer prefers to secure algorithms against known attacks; however designer …

Whitening the testing of service-oriented applications can provide service consumers
confidence on how well an application has been tested. However, to protect business …

In his keynote speech at CHES 2004, Kocher advocated that side-channel attacks were an
illustration that formal cryptography was not as secure as it was believed because some …

Web applications are subject to several types of attacks. In particular, side-channel attacks
consist in performing a statistical analysis of the web traffic to gain sensitive information …
