ARES: Persistently Secure Non-Volatile Memory with Processor-transparent and Hardware-friendly Integrity Verification and Metadata Recovery

ACM TRANSACTIONS ON EMBEDDED COMPUTING SYSTEMS, 21(1).

By: Y. Zou*, K. Abu Zubair n, M. Alwadi*, R. Shadab*, S. Gandham*, A. Awad n, M. Lin*

TL;DR: This article designed and implemented ARES, a new FPGA-assisted processor-transparent security mechanism that aims at efficiently and effectively achieving all three aspects of a security triad—confidentiality, integrity, and recoverability—in modern embedded computing.

Filesystem Encryption or Direct-Access for NVM Filesystems? Let's Have Both!

2022 IEEE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE (HPCA 2022), pp. 490–502.

By: K. Abu Zubair n, D. Mohaisen* & A. Awad n

author keywords: Non-Volatile Memory; Direct-Access (DAX); Security; Privacy; Filesystem Encryption
TL;DR: A novel hardware/software co-design architecture is proposed that enables transparent filesystem encryption without sacrificing the direct-access feature of files in emerging NVMs with minimal change in OS and memory controller. (via Semantic Scholar)

Phoenix: Towards Ultra-Low Overhead, Recoverable, and Persistently Secure NVM

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON DEPENDABLE AND SECURE COMPUTING, 19(2), 1049–1063.

By: M. Alwadi*, K. Abu Zubair n, D. Mohaisen* & A. Awad n

author keywords: Encryption; Nonvolatile memory; Metadata; Computer crashes; Computer architecture; Secure architectures; persistent memory; non-volatile memories; crash consistency; secure recovery
TL;DR: This article proposes Phoenix, a practical novel scheme which relies on elegantly reproducing the cache content before a crash, however with minimal overheads, thus improving the NVM lifetime by 8x and overall Phoenix performance is better than the baseline. (via Semantic Scholar)
