DISARM: Target Electronic Device Informed Mitigation of Software Runtime Side-Channel Vulnerabilities (opens in new tab)

Program runtime or timing attacks exploit variations in a program's execution times to extract sensitive information from the program (e.g. encryption keys, sensitive variable data, intellectual property). State-of-the-art solutions to runtime side-channel attacks attempt to balance the execution time of the sensitive code for different control flow paths to eliminate the timing leakage. However, during the mitigation process, most techniques do...
