Towards High-Performance, Low-Overhead Authentication for Secure Memory in Embedded and Heterogenous Computing Platforms
Abstract: The goal of this research is to innovate novel algorithmic, microarchitectural and logic design techniques for high performance integrity authentication processes in secure-memory platforms, specifically for embedded and heterogeneous use-cases. Generally, the integrity protection against the adversarial attacks in secure-memory platforms depends on integrity trees such as the Bonsai Merkle Tree.
