Abstract

The first part of the talk discusses some potential implications of attacks on the system memory of a computing platform. We show that encryption to protect privacy is not necessarily sufficient to protect against active attacks. In the second part of the talk, we explore the Memory Encryption Engine, which is part of Intel's Software Guard Extensions (SGX) technology.
