Recent IoT applications gradually adapt more complicated end systems with commodity software. Ensuring the runtime integrity of these software is a challenging task for the remote controller or cloud services. Popular enforcement is the…

This paper presents the early deployment of a fully virtual platform to perform the tests of certified airborne software. This is an alternative to the current approach based on the use of dedicated hardware platforms.

In recent years, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has emerged as an effective approach to solving real-world tasks. However, despite their successes, DRL-based policies suffer from poor reliability, which limits their deployment in…

Formal verification provides strong safety guarantees but only for models of cyber-physical systems. Hybrid system models describe the required interplay of computation and physical dynamics, which is crucial to guarantee what computations…

Hardware-firmware co-verification is critical to design trustworthy systems. While formal methods can provide verification guarantees, due to the complexity of firmware and hardware, it can lead to state space explosion. There are promising…

Assured safe-separation is essential for achieving seamless high-density operation of airborne vehicles in a shared airspace. To equip resource-constrained aerial systems with this safety-critical capability, we present ViSafe, a high-speed…

Verified artificial intelligence (AI) is the goal of designing AI-based systems that that have strong, ideally provable, assurances of correctness with respect to mathematically-specified requirements. This paper considers Verified AI from…

As hardware design complexity increases, hardware fuzzing emerges as a promising tool for automating the verification process. However, a significant gap still exists before it can be applied in industry. This paper aims to summarize the…

High-level synthesis (HLS) transforms an algorithmic description of hardware from a higher abstraction (e.g., C/C++) into a register-transfer level (RTL) design, offering reduced development time and greater flexibility in design space…

Virtual Trusted Platform modules (TPMs) were proposed as a software-based alternative to the hardware-based TPMs to allow the use of their cryptographic functionalities in scenarios where multiple TPMs are required in a single platform,…

With the recent advances in sensor hardware and software, architectures for virtualized Wireless Sensor Networks (vWSNs) are now emerging. Through node- and network-level virtualization, vWSNs can be offered as Infrastructure-as-a-Service…

Systems designed with measurement and attestation in mind are often layered, with the lower layers measuring the layers above them. Attestations of such systems, which we call layered attestations, must bundle together the results of a…

Recently, we have witnessed the emergence of intermittently powered computational devices, an early example is the Intel WISP (Wireless Identification and Sensing Platform). How we engineer basic security services to realize mutual…

The emergence of decentralized satellite networks creates a pressing need for trust architectures that operate without physical access to hardware, without pre-provisioned vendor secrets, and without dependence on a single manufacturer's…

Hardware-firmware integration is becoming a productivity bottleneck due to the increasing complexity of accelerators, characterized by intricate memory hierarchies and firmware-intensive execution. While numerous verification techniques…

This paper presents the design and implementation of an assisted control technology for a small multirotor platform for aerial inspection of fixed energy infrastructure. Sensor placement is supported by a theoretical analysis of expected…

Arm introduced the Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA) in the upcoming Armv9-A architecture, enabling the support of confidential virtual machines (CVMs) in a separate world called the Realm world, providing protection from untrusted…

In distributed systems, trust decisions are made on the basis of integrity evidence generated via remote attestation. Examples of the kinds of evidence that might be collected are boot time image hash values; fingerprints of initialization…

Ensuring the safety of vulnerable road users (VRUs), including pedestrians, cyclists, electric scooter riders, and motorcyclists, remains a major challenge for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and connected and automated vehicles…

As Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) designs continue to scale in size and complexity, layout verification has become a central challenge in modern Electronic Design Automation (EDA) workflows. In practice, congestion can only be…
