Sustainable Security & Safety: Challenges and Opportunities

Authors: Andrew Paverd, Marcus Völp, Ferdinand Brasser, Matthias Schunter, N. Asokan, Ahmad-Reza Sadeghi, Paulo Esteves-Veríssimo, Andreas Steininger, and Thorsten Holz

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 73, 4th International Workshop on Security and Dependability of Critical Embedded Real-Time Systems (CERTS 2019)


Abstract
A significant proportion of today’s information and communication technology (ICT) systems are entrusted with high value assets, and our modern society has become increasingly dependent on these systems operating safely and securely over their anticipated lifetimes. However, we observe a mismatch between the lifetimes expected from ICT-supported systems (such as autonomous cars) and the duration for which these systems are able to remain safe and secure, given the spectrum of threats they face. Whereas most systems today are constructed within the constraints of foreseeable technology advancements, we argue that long term, i.e., sustainable security & safety, requires anticipating the unforeseeable and preparing systems for threats not known today. In this paper, we set out our vision for sustainable security & safety. We summarize the main challenges in realizing this desideratum in real-world systems, and we identify several design principles that could address these challenges and serve as building blocks for achieving this vision.

Test-Case Generation for Embedded Binary Code Using Abstract Interpretation

Authors: Thomas Reinbacher, Jörg Brauer, Martin Horauer, Andreas Steininger, and Stefan Kowalewski

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 16, Sixth Doctoral Workshop on Mathematical and Engineering Methods in Computer Science (MEMICS'10) -- Selected Papers (2011)


Abstract
This paper describes a framework for test-case generation for microcontroller binary programs using abstract interpretation techniques. The key idea of our approach is to derive program invariants a priori, and then use backward analysis to obtain test vectors that are executed on the target microcontroller. Due to the structure of binary code, the abstract interpretation framework is based on propositional encodings of the program semantics and SAT solving.

Error Containment in the Presence of Metastability

Authors: Andreas Steininger

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8371, Fault-Tolerant Distributed Algorithms on VLSI Chips (2009)


Abstract
Error containment is an important concept in fault tolerant system design, and techniques like voting are applied to mask erroneous outputs, thus preventing their propagation. In this presentation we will use the example of DARTS, a fault-tolerant distributed clock generation scheme in hardware, to demonstrate that metastability is a substantial threat to error containment. We will illustrate how metastability can originate and propagate such that a single fault may upset the system. The main conclusion is that modeling efforts on all design levels are definitely required in order to mitigate and quantify the deteriorating effect of metastability on system dependability.
