- David Naccache, Can Code Polymorphism Limit Information Leakage?
ABSTRACT: In addition to its usual complexity assumptions, cryptography silently assumes that information can be physically protected in a single location. As one can easily imagine, real-life devices are not ideal and information may leak through different physical side-channels.
In this work we explore the use of polymorphic code as a way of resisting side channel attacks.\smallskip We present experimental results with procedural and functional languages. In each case we rewrite the protected code code $F_i$ before its execution. The outcome is a genealogy of programs $F_0,F_1,\ldots$ such that for all inputs $x$ and for all indexes $i,j$, $F_i(x)=F_j(x)$. This is shown to increase resistance to side channel attacks.

ABSTRACT: TBA
Dr. Pim Tuyls initiated work on physically unclonable functions (PUFs) within Philips Research in 2002. PUFs are now at the heart of Intrinsic-ID technology development. As a principal scientist, he managed the cryptography cluster in Philips Research in which the initial research work on PUFs was carried out. Later, he transferred this work to Intrinsic-ID and headed the technology development. Since 2004, Pim is a visiting professor at the COSIC institute of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. His inventions have resulted in numerous patents. He is widely acclaimed for his work in the security field and PUFs in particular. Several of Pim¹s papers relating to PUFs have been published at leading security conferences. He co-authored the book Security with Noisy Data, which was published by Springer in 2007. Since May 2010, he is the CEO of Intrinsic-ID.
