Side-Channel Attacks Bypass Protection in 3D Printers

Active Motor Noise Cancellation AMNC ships in commercial fused deposition modeling FDM 3D printers as a hardware countermeasure against acoustic side-channel attacks that target intellectual property IP. We present the first empirical evaluation of a deployed AMNC countermeasure, using a public...

Side-Channel Attack Allows Remote Listener to ‘Hear’ On-Screen Images

A stealthy side-channel tactic for digital surveillance has been uncovered, which allows an attacker to “hear” on-screen images. According to a team of academic researchers from Columbia University, the University of Michigan, University of Pennsylvania and Tel Aviv University, inaudible acoustic...
