Kraken: Higher-Order EM Side-Channel Attacks on DNNs in near and Far Field

The multi-million dollar investment required for modern machine learning ML has made large ML models a prime target for theft. In response, the field of model stealing has emerged. Attacks based on physical side-channel information have shown that DNN model extraction is feasible, even on CUDA...

Power Side-Channel Analysis of the CVA6 RISC-V Core at the RTL Level Using VeriSide

Security in modern RISC-V processors demands more than functional correctness: It requires resilience to side-channel attacks. This paper evaluates the vulnerability of the side channel of the CVA6 RISC-V core by analyzing software-based AES encryption uses an RTL-level power profiling framework...
