On Code Execution Tracking via Power Side-Channel

YouTube·ACM CCS (Computer and Communications Security)

Explore a conference talk from CCS 2016 focusing on code execution tracking through power side-channel analysis. Delve into the authors' research on microcontroller unit (MCU) security, examining key extraction attacks and control flow integrity. Learn about the application of Hidden Markov Models for tracking code execution, including state definition, Viterbi algorithm implementation, and emission distribution design. Discover the evaluation setup, abnormal execution tracking techniques, and potential future developments in this critical area of embedded system security.
