Impact of Emerging Hardware on Security and Privacy

The articles in this special issue focus on ongoing research efforts the development, use, and evaluation of emerging hardware features techniques to improve system security. We have seen emergence new software security by limiting memory access within an address space, such as Intel’s protection keys (MPKs) extended page table (EPT) switching, among others. Researchers also proposed hardware-assisted roots trust using trusted execution environments (TEEs), guard extensions (SGXs), so some questions are what utility is limitations they still face. papers provide guidance these areas, which can be helpful examining future directions applications techniques.
