Computer Architecture Focus
We have recently come up with a game changer for hardware security in computer systems referred to as DIVOT: Detecting Impedance Variations of Transmission-lines. The new architecture has been presented in ISCA 2020: Zhenyu Xu, Thomas Mauldin, Zheyi Yao, Shuyi Pei, Tao Wei, and Qing Yang, “A Bus Authentication and Anti-Probing Architecture Extending Hardware Trusted Computing Base Off CPU Chips and Beyond”, ISCA 2020.
