SUMMARY:Electrical and Computer Engineering Seminar: Fan Zhang
DESCRIPTION:Location: ISEC 140 \nPersistent Fault Attacks in Practice \nAbstract: \nPersistent fault analysis (PFA) was proposed at CHES 2018 as a novel fault analysis technique. It was shown to completely defeat standard redundancy based countermeasure against fault analysis. The original PFA was demonstrated with rowhammer-based fault injections. However whether such an analysis can be applied to traditional microcontrollers\, together with its attack difficulty in practice\, has not been investigated. In this talk\, for the first time\, a persistent fault attack is conducted on an unprotected AES algorithm implemented on ATmega163L microcontroller. Several critical challenges are coped with our new improvements. This talk will introduce the PFA at both theoretical and practical levels. \nBio: \nDr. Fan Zhang graduated from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering\, University of Connecticut\, USA. He is currently an associate professor in the College of Computer Science\, Zhejiang University\, China. He was a visiting scholar at the National University of Singapore and currently he is a visiting professor at Singapore University of Technology and Design. His major research interest is the general cybersecurity which includes hardware security\, system security\, network security and more. His special expertise lies in the domain of side-channel attacks (SCA) and countermeasures\, fault attacks\, cryptography\, and computer architecture. He is the Program Chair of PROOFS\, TPC member of DAC\, AsiaCCS\, AsianHOST\, ASHES\, COSADE\, FDTC\, Inscrypt\, and the Associate Editor of IEEE Access\, Cybersecurity. He has more than 60 publications in international conferences and journals such as CHES\, DATE\, COSADE\, FDTC\, TIFS\, TPDS.

SUMMARY:Electrical and Computer Engineering Seminar: Kris Dorsey
DESCRIPTION:Location: ISEC 136 \nIt’s a bit of a stretch: selective\, flexible mechanical sensors towards VR\, healthcare\, and robotics applications \nAbstract: \nIn this talk\, Kris Dorsey will discuss work related to mechanically “programming” soft sensors to respond to a particular mechanical deformation. Advances in 3D-printing\, soft polymer fabrication\, and other rapid fabrication processes have made the vision of conformal and stretchable mechanical sensors for wearable devices and soft robotics possible. One limitation of these sensors is their low selectivity between different modes of mechanical deformation\, such as strain\, torsion\, and bending.\nShe will present recent work in enhancing the selectivity of stretchable sensors. By using non-planar sensor morphology to bias the sensor towards a particular deformation mode\, the selectivity of the sensor can be enhanced. She will discuss projects including designing a sensor with electrically-tunable sensitivity and the fabrication origami-patterned\, deformation-selective flexible sensors. \n  \nBio: \nKris Dorsey is an assistant professor of engineering in the Picker Engineering Program at Smith College. She was a President’s Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California\, Berkeley and University of California\, San Diego. Dr. Dorsey graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering and earned her Bachelors of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Olin College. \nShe founded The MicroSMITHie Lab at Smith College to investigate micro- and miniature-scale sensor design and to prepare undergraduates for graduate study in engineering. Her current research interests include strain-stable\, hyperelastic components\, novel morphology soft sensors\, and sensors for soft robots and wearable devices. \nDr. Dorsey has co-authored several publications on hyperelastic strain sensors\, novel soft lithography processes\, and the stability of gas chemical sensors. In 2019\, she received the NSF CAREER award.
