Efficient cloud computing relies on in-process isolation to optimize performance by running workloads within a single process. Without heavy-weight process isolation, memory safety errors pose a significant security threat by allowing an…

This paper proposes IMCRYPTO, an in-memory computing (IMC) fabric for accelerating AES encryption and decryption. IMCRYPTO employs a unified structure to implement encryption and decryption in a single hardware architecture, with combined…

Man-At-The-End (MATE) attackers are almighty adversaries against whom there exists no silver-bullet countermeasure. To raise the bar, a wide range of protection measures were proposed in the literature each of which adds resilience against…

The monolithic nature of widely used commodity operating systems means that vulnerabilities in one software component potentially compromise the entire kernel. Formally verifying these systems, or redesigning them altogether as…

Proving only over source code that programs do not leak sensitive data leaves a gap between reasoning and reality that can only be filled by accounting for the behaviour of the compiler. Furthermore, software does not always have the luxury…

Modern CPU architectures offer strong isolation guarantees towards user applications in the form of enclaves. For instance, Intel's threat model for SGX assumes fully trusted enclaves, yet there is an ongoing debate on whether this threat…

Privacy-preserving machine learning (PPML) is an emerging topic to handle secure machine learning inference over sensitive data in untrusted environments. Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) enables computation directly on encrypted data on…

Replicability in machine learning (ML) research is increasingly concerning due to the utilization of complex non-deterministic algorithms and the dependence on numerous hyper-parameter choices, such as model architecture and training…

The increasing demand for memory in hyperscale applications has led to memory becoming a large portion of the overall datacenter spend. The emergence of coherent interfaces like CXL enables main memory expansion and offers an efficient…

Several manufacturers have already started to commercialize near-bank Processing-In-Memory (PIM) architectures. Near-bank PIM architectures place simple cores close to DRAM banks and can yield significant performance and energy improvements…

Parallel programming remains a daunting challenge, from the struggle to express a parallel algorithm without cluttering the underlying synchronous logic, to describing which devices to employ in a calculation, to correctness. Over the…

The kernels of operating systems such as Windows, Linux, and MacOS are vulnerable to control-flow hijacking. Defenses exist, but many require efficient intra-address-space isolation. Execute-only memory, for example, requires read…

This paper proposes TRAININGCXL that can efficiently process large-scale recommendation datasets in the pool of disaggregated memory while making training fault tolerant with low overhead. To this end, i) we integrate persistent memory…

In-process compartmentalization and access control have been actively explored to provide in-place and efficient isolation of in-process security domains. Many works have proposed compartmentalization schemes that leverage hardware…

The emergence of CXL (Compute Express Link) promises to transform the status of interconnects between host and devices and in turn impact the design of all software layers. With its low overhead, low latency, and memory coherency…

GPUs have gained significant popularity over the past decade, extending beyond their original role in graphics rendering. This evolution has brought GPU security and reliability to the forefront of concerns. Prior research has shown that…

Emerging Non-Volatile Memories (NVMs) bring a unique challenge to the security community, namely persistent security. As NVM-based memories are expected to restore their data after recovery, the security metadata must be recovered as well.…

Whereas contemporary Error Correcting Codes (ECC) designs occupy a significant fraction of total die area in chip-multiprocessors (CMPs), approaches to deal with the vulnerability increase of CMP architecture against Single Event Upsets…

Security of embedded computing systems is becoming of paramount concern as these devices become more ubiquitous, contain personal information and are increasingly used for financial transactions. Security attacks targeting embedded systems…

Plenty of in-process vulnerabilities are blamed on various out of bound memory accesses. Previous prevention methods are mainly based on software checking associated with performance overhead, while traditional hardware protection…
