Jun 13, 2012 · The cloud exacerbates timing channel risks: 1.Routine co-residency. 2.Massive parallelism. 3.No intrusion alarms → hard to monitor/detect.
This study identifies competition for limited hardware resources as the underlying cause for microarchitectural timing channels, and defines the ...
Timing Information Flow Control (TIFC) is a novel adaptation of IFC techniques that may offer a way to reason about, and ultimately control, the flow of ...
Aug 13, 2018 · Bibliographic details on Plugging Side-Channel Leaks with Timing Information Flow Control.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a new approach to timing channel control, using provider-enforced deterministic execution instead of resource ...
Plugging Side-Channel Leaks with Timing Information Flow Control. Jun 13 2012. Determinating Timing Channels in Compute Clouds. Oct 8 2010. Bryan Ford.
Abstract—The information leakage of a queuing side channel in two-user-shared scheduling system is studied from an information theoretic perspective.
First, clouds exacerbate information security risks from timing side-channels, which current security mechanisms cannot address without undermining the cloud ...
