December 11th, 2019 1:30pm Location: 140 ISEC Abstract: The use of mechanics to lower the dynamic range requirements of radio and clock receivers has recently reduced low-bit-rate communication receive power consumption to near-zero levels and stands poised to enable radio cognition for more efficient use of high-bit-rate spectrum. Approaches to cognition and power reduction go from partial-mechanical ones, where low-capacitance integration of high Q mechanical circuits with transistors provides finer spectrum parsing to ease the burden on transistor circuits; to…

Location: ISEC 140 Persistent Fault Attacks in Practice Abstract: Persistent fault analysis (PFA) was proposed at CHES 2018 as a novel fault analysis technique. It was shown to completely defeat standard redundancy based countermeasure against fault analysis. The original PFA was demonstrated with rowhammer-based fault injections. However whether such an analysis can be applied to traditional microcontrollers, together with its attack difficulty in practice, has not been investigated. In this talk, for the first time, a persistent fault attack is…
