Latest news on my Hardware Security Research by Sergei Skorobogatov.

* New upcoming publications on QVL technology
* Frequently asked questions about QVL technology
* Hardware Assurance is vitally important for Cyber Security as the threat from semiconductor chips infected with Trojans and backdoors grows
* Hardware Assurance related links
* the latest testings revealed that using QVL technique it takes only 0.01 seconds to extract the AES key from a military grade FPGA marketed as 'virtually unbreakable' and 'highly secure'. With classic DPA setup it would take above 1 hour to get the key and with latest stae-of-the-art DPA workstation at least 10 minutes
* using innovative patented technique from Quo Vadis Labs (QVL) we were able to detect and analyse in the first documented case of its kind, a backdoor inserted into the FPGA used in critical industrial infrastructure, avionics and military applications
* health monitoring of the hardware can prevent Stuxnet-like attacks on physical systems
* with the improvement of side-channel attacks effectiveness by a factor of one million it is possible to improve effectiveness of sensors in many areas
* combination of non-invasive, invasive and semi-invasive attacks can break the security in majority of microcontrollers, FPGAs, secure memories and some ASICs and custom chips

Bogus story: no Chinese backdoor in military chip.

Today's big news is that researchers have found proof of Chinese manufacturers putting backdoors in American chips that the military uses. This is false. While they did find a backdoor in a popular FPGA chip, there is no evidence the Chinese put it there, or even that it was intentionally malicious.
