The techniques range from basic non-invasive techniques to sophisticated invasive techniques using chip desoldering and chemical etching or laser ablation to expose bond wires inside chip packages and extract data.   Several case studies related to evidence extraction from embedded devices are presented.  Also, case studies dealing with the extraction and verification of firmware in suspected supply chain compromises are presented.

Sujeet Shenoi is the F.P. Walter Professor of Computer Science and a Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Tulsa, Tulsa, Oklahoma; and a member of the technical staff at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, Maryland. An active researcher with specialties in cyber security, cyber operations, critical infrastructure protection and digital forensics, Dr. Shenoi works on exciting “problems” ranging from helping solve homicides to penetrating telecommunications systems, oil and gas pipelines, wind farms and voting machines. Dr. Shenoi is the Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection (Elsevier); and Editor of the Advances in Digital Forensics and Critical Infrastructure Protection (Springer) series, now in their thirteenth and eleventh volumes, respectively. He spearheads the University of Tulsa's elite Cyber Corps Program that trains “MacGyvers” for U.S. government agencies, and is the Director of the Cyber Security Education Consortium, a National Science Foundation ATE Center that is building a high-tech workforce in the Southwestern United States. For his innovative strategies integrating academics, research and service, Dr. Shenoi was named the 1998-1999 U.S. Professor of the Year by the Carnegie Foundation.

  • ABSTRACT:
    Protecting data in-use has long been a challenging open problem in computer science. While being computed on in cleartext in system memory, your data stored in RAM is exposed to the millions lines of code that make up the underlying platform’s privileged system software. By design, a malicious firmware, or compromised operating system can easily leak your data, or compromise its integrity.

    Confidential computing is a privacy-enhancing system security primitive which addresses this challenge head-on, by running your security-sensitive processes in isolated execution environments whose security guarantees can be remotely attested. Its recent generations, such as Intel SGX, Intel TDX and AMD SEV SNP, make use of newer CPU hardware and architectural extensions, such as the AES-128 hardware encryption engine which encrypts RAM memory pages in real-time. Hardware with these capabilities is already available in the market, and public cloud providers have been one of its early adopters.

    In this presentation, we first visit the history of confidential computing, then study the technical system primitives which allow us to implement both isolation and attestation. We also explore the different silicon implementations of confidential computing, where they are deployed today, and for which uses cases.
