Eavesdropping on ecosystems

Eavesdropping on Memory.

For more than four decades, I have been studying human memory. My research concerns the malleable nature of memory. Information suggested to an individual about an event can be integrated with the memory of the event itself, so that what actually occurred, and what was discussed later about what may have occurred, become inextricably interwoven, allowing distortion, elaboration, and even total ...

Eavesdropping on the Smart Grid

An in-situ deployment of smart grid technology, from meters through to access points and wider grid connectivity, was examined. The aim of the research was to determine what vulnerabilities were inherent in this deployment, and what other consideration issues may have led to further vulnerability in the system. It was determined that there were numerous vulnerabilities embedded in both hardware...

Embedded Eavesdropping on Java Card

In this article we present the first Combined Attack on a Java Card targeting the APDU buffer itself, thus threatening both the security of the platform and of the hosted applications as well as the privacy of the cardholder. We show that such an attack, which combines malicious application and fault injection, is achievable in practice on the latest release of the Java Card specifications by p...

Eavesdropping attacks on computer displays

Electromagnetic information leakage from computer displays was first demonstrated to the general public by van Eck in 1985. Nearby eavesdroppers can pick up compromising emanations from computer hardware with directional antennas and wideband receivers. The basic phenomenon is easily demonstrated with modified TV sets. However, to separate practically readable text shown on modern high-resoluti...
