Analog Physical-Layer Relay Attacks with Application to Bluetooth and Phase-Based Ranging
Paul Staat, Kai Jansen, Christian Zenger +2
Today, we use smartphones as multi-purpose devices that communicate with their environment to implement context-aware services, including asset tracking, indoor localization, conta…
Mirror Mirror on the Wall: Wireless Environment Reconfiguration Attacks Based on Fast Software-Controlled Surfaces
Paul Staat, Harald Elders-Boll, Markus Heinrichs +2
The intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a promising new paradigm in wireless communications for meeting the growing connectivity demands in next-generation mobile networks. IRS…
An Exploratory Study of Hardware Reverse Engineering Technical and Cognitive Processes
Steffen Becker, Carina Wiesen, Nils Albartus +2
Understanding the internals of Integrated Circuits (ICs), referred to as Hardware Reverse Engineering (HRE), is of interest to both legitimate and malicious parties. HRE is a compl…
ARMORY: Fully Automated and Exhaustive Fault Simulation on ARM-M Binaries
Max Hoffmann, Falk Schellenberg, Christof Paar
Embedded systems are ubiquitous. However, physical access of users and likewise attackers makes them often threatened by fault attacks: a single fault during the computation of a c…
The Unpatchable Silicon: A Full Break of the Bitstream Encryption of Xilinx 7-Series FPGAs
Maik Ender, Amir Moradi, Christof Paar
The security of FPGAs is a crucial topic, as any vulnerability within the hardware can have severe consequences, if they are used in a secure design. Since FPGA designs are encoded…
Promoting the Acquisition of Hardware Reverse Engineering Skills
Carina Wiesen, Steffen Becker, Nils Albartus Christof Paar +1
This full research paper focuses on skill acquisition in Hardware Reverse Engineering (HRE) - an important field of cyber security. HRE is a prevalent technique routinely employed…
