| Abstract | This paper develops a new lightweight secure sensing technique using hardware isolation. We focus on protecting the sensor from unauthorized accesses, which can be issued by attackers attempting to compromise the security and privacy of the sensed data. We satisfy the security requirements by employing the hardware isolation feature provided by the secure processor of the target sensor system. In particular, we deploy the sensor in a hardware isolated secure environment, which eliminates the potential vulnerability exposed to unauthorized attackers. We implement the hardware isolation-based secure sensing approach on an Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoC leveraging ARM TrustZone. Our experiments and security analysis on the real hardware prove the effectiveness and low overhead of the proposed approach. |
