aLEAKator verifies masked hardware and software under leakage models
—
What the study found The study presents aLEAKator, an open-source framework for automated formal verification of masked cryptographic accelerators and software on CPUs from HDL descriptions. It uses mixed-domain simulation to model leakage under several 1-probing leakage models, including robust and relaxed versions. Why the authors say this matters The authors say this matters because…

A type-theoretic account of abstraction functions and cost verification
Modular verification in dependent type theory using abstraction functions as types, with support for cost analysis and behavior verification while maintaining privacy guarantees.
