Position Paper: Can the Web Really Use Secure Hardware?

نویسنده

  • Justin King-Lacroix
چکیده

The Web has become the platform of choice for providing services to users in a range of different environments. These services can have drastically differing security requirements; for more sensitive services, it is attractive to take advantage of the wide deployment of secure hardware in the consumer space. However, the applicability of that hardware to any given security problem is not always obvious. This paper explores which use cases are appropriate, and which are not.

Transport Layer Security: How Much Does It Really Cost?

The last couple of years has seen a growing momentum towards using the Internet for conducting business. One of the key enablers for business applications is the ability to setup secure channels across the internet. The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol provides this capability and it is the most widely used transport layer security protocol. In this paper we investigate the performance of SS...

Secure FPGA Design by Filling Unused Spaces

Nowadays there are different kinds of attacks on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As FPGAs are used in many different applications, its security becomes an important concern, especially in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Hardware Trojan Horse (HTH) insertion is one of the major security threats that can be implemented in unused space of the FPGA. This unused space is unavoidable to ...

Threshold Implementation as a Countermeasure against Power Analysis Attacks

One of the usual ways to find sensitive data or secret parameters of cryptographic devices is to use their physical leakages. Power analysis is one of the attacks which lay in such a model. In comparison with other types of side-channels, power analysis is so efficient and has a high success rate. So it is important to provide a countermeasure against it. Different types of countermeasures use ...

Using the W3C WebCrypto API for Document Signing

This paper focuses on digitally signing documents as a specific use case for making secure hardware available to a web application. We explore the current options available to implementers and the drawbacks associated with each option. Then we look at the emerging Web Cryptography API developed by the W3C and discover missing functionality needed to implement this use case. Finally, we suggest ...
