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:ECE Distinguished Seminar: Clark Nguyen
DESCRIPTION:December 11th\, 2019 1:30pm \nLocation: 140 ISEC \nAbstract: \nThe use of mechanics to lower the dynamic range requirements of radio and clock receivers has recently reduced low-bit-rate communication receive power consumption to near-zero levels and stands poised to enable radio cognition for more efficient use of high-bit-rate spectrum. Approaches to cognition and power reduction go from partial-mechanical ones\, where low-capacitance integration of high Q mechanical circuits with transistors provides finer spectrum parsing to ease the burden on transistor circuits; to the latest all-mechanical topology\, where micromechanical resonant switch (a.k.a.\, resoswitch) technology enables listening for incoming signals without the need for current draw\, and ultimately only picowatts to receive and process bits once valid signals appear. \nBio: \nProf. Clark Nguyen is a Professor in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences Department at the University of California at Berkeley\, where his main research thrust focuses on micromechanical signal processing. He is the Founder of Discera; served from 2002 to 2005 as a Program Manager in DARPA/MTO; and recently finished a term as President of the IEEE Ultrasonics\, Ferroelectrics\, and Frequency Control Society. He is an IEEE Fellow and recipient of the 2006 IEEE Cady Award and the 2017 IEEE Bosch MEMS Award.
