Description
Electromagnetic injection (EMI) is a common and non-invasive technique used to perform fault attacks. In that case, an electromagnetic wave is radiated by an antenna in the close vicinity of the targeted microcontroller (STM32 in our case).
The clock signal is generated thanks to a Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL). The PLL is highly sensitive to EMI and then induces severe disruption on the clock signal just after the injection. It appears that these clock glitches are the cause of faults observed at the software level.
TRAITOR is a light and highly configurable platform which can reproduce, using FPGA, a clock signal with the same disruptions than obtained by EMI. The signal generated replaces the clock source of the STM32.
User can then perform several glitches at different time in order to fault a program at run-time and induce vulnerabilities. It can especially be applied to code with counter-measure to only one injection fault and then bypass this counter-measure. At the end, multiple fault injection could completely transform an innocent piece of code and make it malicious.

FeFET based Logic-in-Memory design, methodologies, tools and open challenges
Speaker : Cédric Marchand - University of Lyon - Lyon Institute of Nanotechnology (UMR CNRS 5270)
Data-centric applications such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT) impose increasingly stringent demands on the performance, the security and the energy efficiency of modern computing architectures. Traditional approaches are often unable to keep pace with these requirements making necessary to explore innovative paradigms such as in-memory computing. This paradigm is[…]-

TrustSoC : a heterogeneous secure-by-design SoC architecture
Speaker : Raphaële Milan - Université Jean Monnet Saint-Etienne, CNRS, Laboratoire Hubert Curien UMR 5516
Since the 1970s, the complexity of systems on a chip has grown significantly. In order to improve system performance, manufacturers are integrating an increasing number of heterogeneous components on a single silicon chip. The incorporation of these components renders SoCs highly versatile yet significantly complex. Their multipurpose nature makes them suitable for use in a variety of domains,[…]-

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[…]-

Hardware Trojan Horses and Microarchitectural Side-Channel Attacks: Detection and Mitigation via Hardware-based
MethodologiesSpeaker : 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[…]-

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[…]-

Cryptanalytical extraction of complex Neural Networks in black-box settings
Speaker : Benoit COQUERET - INRIA, Thales CESTI
With the widespread development of artifical intelligence, Deep Neural Networks (DNN) have become valuable intellectual property (IP). In the past few years, software and hardware-based attacks targetting at the weights of the DNN have been introduced allowing potential attacker to gain access to a near-perfect copy of the victim's model. However, these attacks either fail against more complex[…]-
