'''TITLE:'''&nbsp; Security of Satellite Navigation Systems
 
 
 
'''ABSTRACT:'''&nbsp;
 
The Arctic is becoming increasingly relevant, as the polar ice shrinks and the competition for resources increases. Global satellite platforms with high integrity and availability represent a prerequisite for a commercial exploitation of the North-East Passage, for stable positioning of floating drilling ships and platforms. This is also a challenge that Norway should respond to with its obligations in the North Sea and the Arctic. The security of satellite navigation systems is critical to many critical domains, such as airplane and ship navigation, time stamping of financial transactions, as well as border control and defense. This talk look at the functionality and security of Galileo, and Norway's role in supporting this system.
 
 
 
'''SPEAKER BIO:'''&nbsp;
 
Øivind Christophersen has a strong background in ICT from Defence, Foreign Affairs and from NATO. He has a Bachelor of Science from the University of Maryland, a Master of Management from BI, and was for two years the national expert representative in the European Commission, for policy development in the Galileo program. He is coordinator of the GNSS program in NSM and represents Norway in several international security forums.

  • 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.
