Decoupled Real-time Program Execution State Monitoring

Abstract

The work is to detect program execution state integrity (PESI) violations. The monitor is at distance and decoupled from the monitored platform. The state of the art power side channel instruction identification bandwidth is of the order of 100-250 M instructions/sec with around 90% accuracy. Most processors’ instruction execution rate, of the order of 1G-16G instructions/sec per core, exceeds this by a large margin. The main insight is to lower bandwidth needs of the multimodal streams to the monitor through a hierarchical model of a program with blobs of CFG nodes.
