IEEE S&P: Last-level cache side-channel attacks are practical
Working with colleagues from Princeton University and from NICTA we demonstrate how to implement last-level cache side channels, measure their capacity and demonstrate that their resolution is sufficient for leaking cryptographic keys between co-located virtual machines and across multiple processor cores. F. Liu, Y. Yarom, Q. Ge, G. Heiser, and R.B. Lee, Last-Level Cache Side-Channel […]
