In this post I’d like to discuss how Printed Circuit Boards (PBCs) and Integrated Circuits (ICs) are built, because they serve to connect different electronic components. I’d also like to go a little deep on how each of the basic components are built.
QEMU (an acronym for Quick EMUlator) is an Open Source project for machine emulation and virtualization. It uses emulation to run a machine with a different architecture from the host machine (e.g. running MIPS Linux in an x86 PC)…
Side-channel attacks seek to leak data from effects from an algorithm implementation, like time taken and power consumption…
Meltdown and Spectre are vulnerabilities in modern processor that were published in 2018. What makes these vulnerabilities interesting is that they explore hardware features rather than software…
