An Empirical Bandwidth Analysis of Interrupt-Related Covert Channels
We empirically evaluate interrupt-related covert channels, in short IRCCs, a type of covert channel that leverages hardware interrupts for communication. The evaluation is based on an exploit of IRCCs that we implemented as a proof-of-concept. We use a combination of experimental evaluation and information-theoretic analysis to compute the bandwidth of the channel on a concrete system. Our anal...
متن کاملInformation-Theoretic Modeling and Analysis of Interrupt-Related Covert Channels
Appeared in P. Degano et al. (Ed.): Preproceedings of FAST 2008; c © Springer-Verlag (to be transferred) Abstract. We present a formal model for analyzing the bandwidth of covert channels. The focus is on channels that exploit interrupt-driven communication, which have been shown to pose a serious threat in practical experiments. Our work builds on our earlier model [1], which we used to compar...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Covert Timing Channels
Covert channels have tmditionally been categorized as either stomge channels or timing channels[6, 71. This paper questions this categorization, and discwses channels that cannot be clearly identified as either stomge or timing channels, but have aspects of both. A new model of timing channels is presented, which allows for channels that have chamcteristics of both stomge channels and timing ch...
متن کاملAn Insight to Covert Channels
This paper presents an overview of different concepts regarding covert channels. It discusses the various classifications and the detailing of various fields used to manipulate for the covert channel execution. Different evaluation criteria’s are presented for measuring the strength of covert channels. The defenses and prevention schemes for this covert channel will also be discussed. This pape...
متن کاملan infinite planar array of rectangular microstrip patch antenna analysis
the methods which are used to analyze microstrip antennas, are divited into three categories: empirical methods, semi-empirical methods and full-wave analysis. empirical and semi-empirical methods are generally based on some fundamental simplifying assumptions about quality of surface current distribution and substrate thickness. thses simplificatioms cause low accuracy in field evaluation. ful...
