Description:
This article presents the AEGIS secure processor architecture, which enables new applications by ensuring private and authentic program execution even in the face of physical attack. Our architecture uses two new primitives to achieve physical security. First, we describe Physical Random Functions which reliably protect and share secrets in a manner that is cheaper and more secure than existing solutions based on non-volatile memory. Second, off-chip memory protection mechanisms ensure the integrity and the privacy of off-chip memory. Our processor, with its new protection mechanisms, has been implemented on an FPGA, and is fully functional. We briefly assess the cost of the security mechanisms in our processor and show that it is reasonable.
