Conclusions 138 Bibliography 139 iv LIST OF FIGURES Page 2.1 Security monitor overview. .8 2.2 (a) TrustZone-based TEE architecture. (b) Virtualization-based TEE archi- tecture. 11 4.1 LED notification for microphone using Viola. The LED blinks even if the application is in the background or if the display is off. Malicious attempts to break this notification will be blocked. 27 4.2 Viola's design. The darker components belong to Viola. 33 4.3 (Left) The sequence of steps in handling a register write in Viola. (Right) A concurrency attack example in Viola. 38 4.4 The implementation of a microphone LED notification in Viola. For brevity, we have not shown the complete array of device variable states and the device specifications used in the code. 41 4.5 Compilation of Viola invariant code. Viola's compiler translates Viola code to Cminor code, which is then compiled to machine code using the verified CompCert compiler and an assembler. 42 4.6 Two-way invariant check design. 48 4.7 Two-way invariant check flowchart. ..
