A static information flow analysis to ensure privacy-preserving FPGA logic designs

For performance and scalability reasons, most cloud providers start using Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) to provide FPGA-based acceleration services. FPGA virtualization becomes then necessary to optimize hardware resources utilization, but raises security and privacy concerns.In this work we consider a temporal multi-tenancy environment, where a single FPGA instance running a…
