  • Intel ME: Myths and Reality (2017)
    INTEL ME: MYTHS AND REALITY ABOUT SPEAKERS Igor Skochinsky Hobby reverse engineer Soware developer at Hex-Rays since 2008 NOT a security researcher Did a bit of e-Reader hacking ABOUT SPEAKERS Nicola Corna Hobby reverse engineer Interested in DIY hardware Electronics Engineering student at the Politecnico di Milano NOT a security researcher PCB milling DISCLAIMER The contents of this talk is based on public information sources and our own reverse engineering. We can't be certain that our conclusions are 100% correct and may turn out wrong in future. We do not have any NDA or "special relationship" with Intel. INTEL ME Originally "manageability engine" later just "management engine" nowadays "converged security and manageability engine (CSME)" or "converged security engine (CSE)" "Trusted Execution Engine" (TXE) for mobile/embedded "Server Platform Services" (SpS) for servers INTEL ME Built into many Intel® Chipset–based platforms is a small, low-power computer subsystem [...] performs various tasks [...] must function correctly to get the most performance and capability from your PC from Frequently Asked Questions for the Intel® Management Engine Verification Utility Myth 1: It's a backdoor made for NSA and serves no useful purpose from Reddit from Phoronix <anon1> How can I "limit my risk" when there is a dedicated, hidden computer on top of my computer that has full access and cannot be disabled? <anon1> There is no need for a "hardware hack". It's a built-in hardware backdoor. <anon1> Bypasses any firewall, latches onto any wifi signal, cannot be disabled, etc. (from IRC) Well, that sounds pretty bad. But is it true? My opinion: pretty unlikely.

  • Hardware Security
    An Attack and a Defence in the Context of Hardware Security by Frank Imeson A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 c Frank Imeson 2013 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract The security of digital Integrated Circuits (ICs) is essential to the security of a computer system that comprises them. We present an improved attack on computer hardware that avoids known defence mechanisms and as such raises awareness for the need of new and improved defence mechanisms. We also present a new defence method for securing computer hardware against modifications from untrusted manufacturing facilities, which is of concern since manufacturing is increasingly outsourced. We improve upon time triggered based backdoors, inserted maliciously in hardware. Prior work has addressed deterministic timer-based triggers | those that are designed to trigger at a specific time with probability 1. We address open questions related to the feasibility of realizing non-deterministic timer-based triggers in hardware | those that are designed with a random component. We show that such timers can be realized in hardware in a manner that is impractical to detect or disable using existing countermea- sures of which we are aware. We discuss our design, implementation and analysis of such a timer.

  • On Improving Cybersecurity Through Memory Isolation Using Systems Management Mode
    On Improving Cybersecurity Through Memory Isolation Using Systems Management Mode A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy James Andrew Sutherland School of Design and Informatics University of Abertay Dundee August 2018 i Abstract This thesis describes research into security mechanisms for protecting sensitive areas of memory from tampering or intrusion using the facilities of Systems Man- agement Mode. The essence and challenge of modern computer security is to isolate or contain data and applications in a variety of ways, while still allowing sharing where desir- able. If Alice and Bob share a computer, Alice should not be able to access Bob’s passwords or other data; Alice’s web browser should not be able to be tricked into sending email, and viewing a social networking web page in that browser should not allow that page to interact with her online banking service. The aim of this work is to explore techniques for such isolation and how they can be used usefully on standard PCs. This work focuses on the creation of a small dedicated area to perform cryp- tographic operations, isolated from the rest of the system. This is a sufficiently useful facility that many modern devices such as smartphones incorporate dedic- ated hardware for this purpose, but other approaches have advantages which are discussed. As a case study, this research included the creation of a secure web server whose encryption key is protected using this approach such that even an intruder with full Administrator level access cannot extract the key. A proof of concept backdoor which captures and exfiltrates encryption keys using a modified processor wasalso demonstrated.

  • Understanding Hostile Use and Cyber-Vulnerabilities of UAS: Components, Autonomy V Automation, Sensors, SAA, SCADA and Cyber Attack Taxonomy
    Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) in the Cyber Domain Chapter 3: Understanding Hostile Use and Cyber-Vulnerabilities of UAS: Components, Autonomy v Automation, Sensors, SAA, SCADA and Cyber Attack Taxonomy Student Learning Objectives An introduction to the Problem of countering hostile use of UAS against U.S. national defense interests will be introduced. The student will be able to identify critical components of an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS), identify potential cyber vulnerabilities and understand the taxonomy of UAS operations that may be compromised against USA interests. FAA rules and US laws lag the UAS technology growth. In this chapter, UAS critical components, sensors, and levels of self-reliance are identified. These components are viewed in terms of Sense and Avoid (SAA) and SCADA environments. These components are then incorporated -into the Cyber – Attack Taxonomy. (Nichols R.-0. , 2016) What Is The Counter -UAS Problem? The risk of successful terrorist attacks on USA Air Defense Systems (ADS) via UASs is greater because of improving commercial capabilities and accessibility. Advanced small drones, capable of carrying sophisticated imaging equipment and significant payloads, are readily available to the public. A range of terrorist, insurgent, criminal, corporate, and activist threat groups have demonstrated their ability to use civilian drones and gather intelligence. How does the country defend against a growing UAS threat? This is also known as the counter – UAS Problem. General James D Mattis, SECDEF summed up the Problem succinctly: “Unmanned Aircraft are being developed with more technologically systems and capabilities. They can duplicate some of the capabilities of manned aircraft for both surveillance/ reconnaissance and attack missions.
