More interposer fun, this time with DDR5 memory. Breaking TDX, SGX, SEV and even Nvidia TEEs. Checkout our work at TEE.fail, and get a personally-signed Intel attestation report at @TEEdotFail.

Want to know what happens when commercial TEEs meet improvised DRAM memory interposers? SGX mayhem including attestation key extraction. Please DO try that at homeš. Check out our work at wiretap.fail/

Embarking on a new project that needs physical access to an H100 GPU. Any chance anyone is willing to let us borrow one (we promise to return it), in exchange for a security exploration into the land of confidential computing? If so, DM me for further details. Thanks :)

A great summary of the Zerocash/Zcash origin story. Truly humbled and grateful to have been a part of this, and appreciative of IEEE S&P for the recognition.
Zerocash won the 2024 IEEE S&P Test of Time Award. Published in 2014, it pioneered using zkSNARKs for blockchains. Its techniques ended up in Zcash, Tornado Cash, Railgun, and other deployed protocols for private payment on public blockchains. It started with last years winner...

Congrats to @arushi1250 for successfully defending her PhD today! (My first student!) If you haven't seen it, checkout her great work on improving the security/privacy of Tor with our Bento architecture. Very proud of the work she's done and great things she'll do in the future!

Excited to finally release the paper we've been working on that explores the challenges of using SGX for real world applications! tl;dr, it's very hard, post-compromise recovery is hard, and we can leak secrets. Also a great resource for learning about SGX attacks and defenses!
29 Nov 2022
Our survey of SGX attacks is out! Come learn about how SGX fails in real life. Check out our website sgx.fail including attacks on @SecretNetwork and @CyberLink PowerDVD.

Excited to announce that registration is open for GREPSEC V -- a workshop for early-stage grad students doing research in security and privacy who come from underrepresented populations. Women/NB/gender minorities, BIPOC, LGBTQ , etc.

Huge congratulations to @HexHiveEPFL's @amipri @PurdueCS for passing her defense today. You may know her from fun work on finding unsafe variadic function calls, type safety violations for C applications or tightening the bounds for CFI!

Congrats to my student Stephen Herwig for making the paper he led āAchieving Keyless CDNs with Conclavesā reproducible! Conclaves are containers of enclaves, allowing legacy apps (even multi-process with shared memory) to be deployed in secure enclaves. Joint work with @CryptoGPS
