Recent advances have given rise to the popularity and success of cloud computing.
However, when outsourcing the data and business application to a third party causes the …

Side-channel attacks have become a severe threat to the confidentiality of computer
applications and systems. One popular type of such attacks is the microarchitectural attack …

Intel SGX isolates the memory of security-critical applications from the untrusted OS.
However, it has been speculated that SGX may be vulnerable to side-channel attacks …

Intel Software Guard Extension (SGX) protects the confidentiality and integrity of an
unprivileged program running inside a secure enclave from a privileged attacker who has …

Security is a major barrier to enterprise adoption of cloud computing. Physical co-residency
with other tenants poses a particular risk, due to pervasive virtualization in the cloud. Recent …

We propose a flexibly-partitioned cache design that either drastically weakens or completely
eliminates cache-based side channel attacks. The proposed Non-Monopolizable (NoMo) …

This paper presents the design, implementation and evaluation of a system called Düppel
that enables a tenant virtual machine to defend itself from cache-based side-channel attacks …

We present a software approach to mitigate access-driven side-channel attacks that
leverage last-level caches (LLCs) shared across cores to leak information between security …

Speculative execution, the base on which modern high-performance general-purpose CPUs
are built on, has recently been shown to enable a slew of security attacks. All these attacks …

Recent research has demonstrated that Intel's SGX is vulnerable to software-based side-
channel attacks. In a common attack, the adversary monitors CPU caches to infer secret …
