Description
Hardware attacks on embedded systems explained by notable experts Jasper van Woudenberg and Colin O'Flynn. The authors explore the embedded system threat model, hardware interfaces, various side channel and fault injection attacks (such as timing attacks, simple power analysis, and differential power analysis), as well as voltage and clock glitching.
About the Author
Colin O'Flynn runs NewAE Technology Inc., a startup designing tools and equipment to teach engineers about embedded security. He started the open-source ChipWhisperer project as part of his PhD, and was previously an assistant professor with Dalhousie University teaching embedded systems and security. He lives in Halifax, Canada, and you can find his dogs featured in many of the products developed with NewAE.
Jasper van Woudenberg is the CTO of Riscure North America. He has been involved in embedded device security on a broad range of topics, including finding and helping fix bugs in code that runs on hundreds of millions of devices, using symbolic execution to extract keys from faulted cryptosystems, and using speech recognition algorithms for side channel trace processing. Jasper is a father of two and husband of one and lives in California, where he likes to bike mountains and board snow. He has a cat that tolerates him but is too cool for Twitter.
Reviews
"I really wished such a book existed when I started with researching hardware hacking a few years ago. It introduces all the relevant background that's needed for hardware hacking along with references to further reading (the references are really nice to have for more intermediate readers). It also provides many practical examples that helps you see why the concepts are important and how they are applied."
-Yifan Lu, Security Researcher
"One of the most complete introductions to hardware hacking I've seen . . . provide[s] you something you wouldn't learn elsewhere."
-Arya Voronova, Hackaday
