A new side-channel attack takes aim at Intel’s CPU ring interconnect in order to glean sensitive data. Intel processors are vulnerable to a new side-channel attack, which researchers said can allow ...

Side channel attacks (SCAs) differ considerably from conventional cryptographic attacks. Essentially, side channel attacks – which can be very low-cost and non-invasive – exploit data gathered from ...

A new academic study shows that a regular smartphone can act as a sonar system and steal sensitive information based on the victim's finger movement on the screen. Researchers from Lancaster and ...

Device security requires designers to secure their algorithms, not only against direct attacks on the input and output, but also against side-channel attacks. This requirement is especially notable ...

From its ancient origin as a tool for protecting sensitive wartime or espionage-related messages, cryptography has become a foundational building-block for securing the systems, protocols, and ...

When starting a virtual machine using VMware Workstation or Fusion, you may have seen a pop saying you are running this virtual machine with side channel mitigations enabled. In this post, we will ...
