Microarchitectural timing channels expose hidden hardware states though timing. We survey
recent attacks that exploit microarchitectural features in shared hardware, especially as they …

The advantages of virtualization technology have resulted in its wide spread adoption in
cloud computing infrastructures. However it has also introduced a new set of security threats …

The path a packet takes when handled by the Linux Kernel has been well established for a
long time. Its overhead/bottleneck issues are also known. Nonetheless, complexity has …

Interference between processes executing on shared hardware can be used to mount
performance-degradation attacks. However, in most cases, such attacks offer little benefit for …

Counting Bloom filters (CBF) and their variants are data structures that support membership
or multiplicity queries with a low probabilistic error. Yet, they incur a significant memory …

Designing security mechanisms for cloud computing infrastructures has assumed
importance with the widespread adoption of public clouds. Virtualization security is a crucial …

Virtualization security is an important aspect to be carefully addressed while provisioning
cloud services. In this paper, we propose a novel model using Bayesian Attack Graphs …

Single root I/O virtualization (SRIOV) is a hardware/software interface that allows devices to
“self virtualize” and thereby remove the host from the critical I/O path. SRIOV thus brings …

In state-of-the-art design paradigm, time, space and power efficiency are considered the
primary design constraints. Quite often, this approach adversely impacts the security of the …

Electric/Electronic architectures in modern automobiles evolve towards an hierachical
approach where functionalities from several ECUs are consolidated into few domain …
