Embedded Security
Last updated
Background
How secure are embedded systems? Answering this question has resulted in me returning to school for my PhD, so it’s a long-winded answer! Briefly though through a series of very well-known (i.e. published for 15+ years) attacks, it’s possible to break even perfect crypto implementations. This also led me to the creation of the ChipWhisperer, my open-source hardware+software for research in this area.
Presentations
I’ve presented at a number of conferences on worked related to this, including the following: DEF CON 2015 REcon 2015 HCSS 2015 CCECE 2015 (Academic paper presentation) AtlSecCon 2015 HTCIA 2014 REcon 2014 COSADE 2014 (Academic paper presentation) AtlSecCon 2014 Blackhat USA 2013 Blackhat Abu Dhabi 2012
