Rambus’ Ben Levine talks IoT security and cryptography with EDA Café

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/rambus-ben-levine-talks-iot-security-and-cryptography-with-eda-cafe-2/

Ben Levine, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Rambus, recently sat down with Sanjay Gangal of EDA Café to discuss IoT security and cryptography. According to Levine, security should be embedded in every chip. More specifically, says Levine, a separate hardware-based security core can help protect both the SoC itself and the system it powers. […]

High Speed Public Key Accelerator

Security High Speed Public Key Accelerator The Rambus High Speed Public Key Accelerator PKI-IP-154 (EIP-154 formerly the Inside Secure) is a family of cryptographic IP cores designed for full scalability and an optimal performance over gate count ratio. The PKA-IP-154 can be deployed in any semiconductor design that needs key exchange or key generation at […]

NetCat Exploits Intel’s DDIO

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/netcat-exploits-intels-ddio/

Targeting Intel’s DDIO White hat security researchers from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and ETH Zurich have unveiled a new exploit dubbed NetCAT. The exploit targets Direct Cache Access (DCA) – widely known as Data-Direct I/O (DDIO) – found in recent generations of Intel server processors. As a performance optimization feature, DDIO grants network devices and other […]

Understanding Side-channel Attacks, Their Implications, and How to Test a System’s Resistance

https://go.rambus.com/understanding-side-channel-attacks#new_tab

Side-channel attacks are low cost, non-invasive, and can completely subvert an electronic system’s security. Watch this webinar to learn more about the nature of side channel attacks and how testing can reveal a system’s ability to handle this threat.

Side-channel attack targets deep neural networks (DNNs)

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/side-channel-attack-targets-deep-neural-networks-dnns/

All physical electronic systems routinely leak information about the internal process of computing via fluctuating levels of power consumption and electro-magnetic emissions. Much like traditional safecracking, an electronic side-channel attack (SCA) eschews a brute force approach to extracting keys and other secret information from a device or system. As such, an SCA conducted against electronic […]

FIPS 140-3 and DPA: A Winning Combination

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/fips-140-3-and-dpa-a-winning-combination/

Recently, Rambus blogged about a large number of our DPARC and Crypto Accelerator Hardware Cores receiving FIPS-140-2 CAVP certification by NIST. As we wrote, these certifications provide our customers with assurance of the robustness, quality and applicability of our cryptographic solutions. But, as nefarious parties continue to uncover new ways to hack devices, Rambus and […]

Protecting Computing Systems in a Post-Meltdown/Spectre World

https://go.rambus.com/protecting-computing-systems-in-a-post-meltdown-spectre-world#new_tab

When Jann Horn of Google’s Project Zero posted a detailed blog titled “Reading privileged memory with a side-channel,” it set off a firestorm of activity as the post confirmed that secret information inside a computer could be accessed via two different attacks, Meltdown and Spectre. Essentially, both attacks utilize CPU data cache timing to efficiently […]

Fault Injection Attacks PlayStation Vita’s SoC

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/fault-injection-attacks-playstation-vitas-soc/

Security researcher Yifan Lu recently published a detailed paper that examines how voltage glitching causes critical timing violations in CMOS behavior. More specifically, Lu closely analyzes CMOS transistor behavior to better understand when the combinational logic is most susceptible to voltage glitch induced faults. The paper also describes a real-world fault injection attack against the […]
