SaTC: CORE: Small: HOLMES: Holistic and Hardware-assisted Control-Flow Security for Microc — NSF Award to Northeastern University
Microcontrollers (MCU) are tiny computers found in everything from medical devices and home appliances to cars and factory equipment. As these systems become more connected to the internet and each other, they also become more vulnerable to cyber threats. Unfortunately, most existing security protections were designed

| Abstract | Microcontrollers (MCU) are tiny computers found in everything from medical devices and home appliances to cars and factory equipment. As these systems become more connected to the internet and each other, they also become more vulnerable to cyber threats. Unfortunately, most existing security protections were designed for more advanced computers and do not work well on these smaller, more limited devices. This project will develop new, practical solutions to protect MCU-based systems from cybera |
