DRAM Security
DRAM Security

DRAM is prevalent in nearly all computing devices as a cost-effective way of storing data. We want to ensure that the underlying implementation is secured.

Keystroke Timing Attacks
Keystroke Timing Attacks

The spatial layout of a keyboard enables adversaries to predict the input based on keystroke intervals. We aim to explore ways to extract and accurately reconstruct inputs.

Browser Security
Browser Security

Browsers are integral to the modern society. We evaluate the security of modern browsers and look for potential vulnerabiltiies introduced by the interaction of software and hardware.

Microarchitecture Security
Microarchitecture Security

The microarchitecture of computers has become more complex due to the performance optimizations. We explore the security side-effects that comes along with the performance benefits.
