Securing FPGA Accelerators at the Electrical Level for Multi-tenant Platforms

As FPGAs are now offered on the cloud, this exposes many potential security issues. This PhD project investigates current security issues and challenges when deploying FPGAs in the cloud as well as using FPGAs in a multi-tenancy scenario. By addressing practical threats, and most importantly, proposing feasible countermeasures, this paper shows preliminary results on protecting FPGAs for multi-tenant scenarios.
