Measurement the thermal component of clock jitter used as entropy source by TRNGs
Speaker : Arturo GARAY - STMicroelectronics
Introduction Measuring the thermal component of clock jitter as an entropy source for True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) is compulsory for the security and evaluation of clock-jitter based TRNGs. However, identifying and isolating the local thermal noise component from other noise sources, particularly flicker noise, while performing a precise measurement remains a challenge. Current[…]-

Covert Communication Channels Based On Hardware Trojans: Open-Source Dataset and AI-Based Detection
Speaker : Alan Díaz Rizo - Sorbonne Université Lip6
The threat of Hardware Trojan-based Covert Channels (HT-CCs) presents a significant challenge to the security of wireless communications. In this work, we generate in hardware and make open-source a dataset for various HT-CC scenarios. The dataset represents transmissions from a HT-infected RF transceiver hiding a CC that leaks information. It encompasses a wide range of signal impairments, noise[…]-

I know what your compiler did: Optimization Effects on Power Side-Channel Leakage for RISC-V
Speaker : Ileana Buhan - Radboud University Nijmegen
With the growing prevalence of software-based cryptographic implementations in high-level languages, understanding the role of architectural and micro-architectural components in side-channel security is critical. The role of compilers in case of software implementations towards contribution to side-channel leaks is not investigated. While timing-based side-channel leakage due to compiler effects[…]-

Hardware Trojan Horses and Microarchitectural Side-Channel Attacks: Detection and Mitigation via Hardware-based Methodologies
Speaker : Alessandro PALUMBO - CentraleSupélec, IRISA, Inria
Hardware Trojan Horses that are software-exploitable can be inserted into microprocessors, allowing attackers to run unauthorized code or escalate privileges. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that attackers could observe certain microprocessor features - seemingly unrelated to the program's execution - to exfiltrate secrets or private data. So, even devices produced in secure foundries could[…]-

The influence of flicker noise on ring oscillator-based TRNGs
Speaker : Licinius-Pompiliu BENEA - Univ. Grenoble Alpes, CEA, LETI
Ring oscillators (ROs) are often used in true random number generators (TRNGs). The jitter of their clock signal, used as a source of randomness, stems from thermal and flicker noises. While thermal noise jitter is often identified as the main source of randomness, flicker noise jitter is not taken into account due to its autocorrelated nature which greatly complexifies modelling. However, it is a[…]-

Remote data extraction through retroreflector hardware implants
Speaker : François Sarrazin, Pierre Granier - University of Rennes, IETR (UMR 6164)
Electromagnetic leakage eavesdropping is an increasingly accessible attack vector due to the democratization of software-defined radio. "TEMPEST" attacks rely on passively listening to the unwanted electromagnetic emanations of a target (computer screen, low speed USB peripheral…) in order to retrieve the transmitted data. However, the range and properties of such leakages are unpredictable.[…]-
