Evaluating, Exploiting, and Hiding Power Side-Channel Leakage of Remote FPGAs

The pervasive adoption of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) in both cyber-physical systems and the cloud has raised many security issues. Being integrated circuits, FPGAs are susceptible to fault and power side-channel attacks, which require physical ...

Automating the Design of Programmable Interconnect for Reconfigurable Architectures

Stefan Nikolic

With Moore's law coming to an end, increasingly more hope is being put in specialized hardware implemented on reconfigurable architectures such as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Yet, it is often neglected that these architectures themselves experi ...

Active Wire Fences for Multitenant FPGAs

Mirjana Stojilovic, Ognjen Glamocanin, Stasa Kostic, Andela Kostic

When spatially shared among multiple tenants, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are vulnerable to remote power side-channel analysis attacks. Using carefully crafted on-chip voltage sensors, adversaries can extract secrets (e.g., encryption keys or th ...

IIBLAST: Speeding Up Commercial FPGA Routing by Decoupling and Mitigating the Intra-CLB Bottleneck

Mirjana Stojilovic, Stefan Nikolic, Shashwat Shrivastava

We identified that in modern commercial FPGAs, routing signals from the general interconnect to the configurable logic blocks (CLBs) through a very sparse input interconnect block (IIB) represents a significant runtime bottleneck. This is despite academic ...

Temperature Impact on Remote Power Side-Channel Attacks on Shared FPGAs

Mathias Josef Payer, Mirjana Stojilovic, Ognjen Glamocanin, Hajira Shafqat Bazaz

To answer the growing demand for hardware acceleration, Amazon, Microsoft, and many other major cloud service providers have included field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) in their datacenters. However, researchers have shown that cloud FPGAs, when shared ...

Practical Implementations of Remote Power Side-Channel and Fault-Injection Attacks on Multitenant FPGAs

Francesco Regazzoni, Mirjana Stojilovic, Dina Gamaleldin Ahmed Shawky Mahmoud, Ognjen Glamocanin

Cloud computing environments increasingly provision FPGAs because of their fine-grained, highly parallel, and flexible hardware architecture. The availability of FPGAs in the cloud fueled research on the security risks associated with exposing FPGA fabric ...

Programmable frequency-bin quantum states in a nano-engineered silicon device

Matteo Galli, Marco Clementi

Frequency-bin qubits get the best of time-bin and dual-rail encodings, but require external modulators and pulse shapers to build arbitrary states. Here, instead, the authors work directly on-chip by controlling the interference of biphoton amplitudes gene ...

Acceleration of Control Intensive Applications on Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Arrays for Embedded Systems

David Atienza Alonso, Miguel Peon Quiros, Benoît Walter Denkinger

Embedded systems confront two opposite goals: low-power operation and high performance. The current trend to reach these goals is toward heterogeneous platforms, including multi-core architectures with heterogeneous cores and hardware accelerators. The lat ...
