Mind the Gap - Studying the Insecurity of Provably Secure Embedded Trusted Execution Architectures

Explore the security vulnerabilities in embedded Trusted Execution Architectures (TEAs) through this 18-minute IEEE conference talk. Delve into the research conducted by Marton Bognar, Jo Van Bulck, and Frank Piessens from KU Leuven as they examine the gaps between theoretical security proofs and practical implementations of TEAs. Gain insights into potential weaknesses in systems that are considered provably secure, and understand the importance of bridging the divide between formal verification and real-world security challenges in embedded systems.
