Intel Talks at Black Hat USA 2022:
Project Circuit Breaker, A Community of Elite Hackers
Presented by Katie Trimble-Noble, director of Product Security and Bug Bounty at Intel. Project Circuit Breaker is a community of elite hackers – fixers and breakers – who hunt bugs in firmware, hypervisors, GPUs, compromising chipsets, pwning processors and other equipment. Missions include live hacking events on the latest Intel products, and even some pre-release opportunities, immersive training, and capture the flag events. Game Masters, Intel engineers, work closely with participants, and the community is encouraged to learn from each other. This isn’t your usual Bug Bounty program. Challenges focus on some of the biggest hurdles, and bounties are multiplied.
When: 8-8:15 a.m. PDT, Wednesday, Aug. 10
Where: Virtual and on-demand session

Fault-Injection Detection Circuits: Design, Calibration, Validation and Tuning
This session, presented by Daniel Nemiroff, senior principal Engineer at Intel and Carlos Tokunaga, principal engineer at Intel Labs, covers the tunable replica circuit (TRC), a fault-injection detection circuit that has been integrated into Intel® Converged Security and Management Engine (Intel® CSME) in the recent 12th Gen Intel Core processor. This is Intel's first foray into active fault-injection attack detection in high-volume products like CPUs and chipsets.
Since a timing failure is the primary goal of fault-injection attacks and has been shown as the vehicle to cause unsigned code to run on other security engines, using the TRC to explicitly detect timing failures is Intel's current approach to fault-injection detection in client security engines. Unlike traditional analog voltage and clock monitors, the TRC detects timing failures that result from voltage, clock, temperature and other glitch attacks, like electromagnetic radiation. This session will introduce the TRC technology, how the TRC was integrated into Intel CSME, the process for calibrating the TRC in high volume manufacturing (HVM), as well as the false-positive and fault-injection testing that occurred in our physical attack labs.
When: 3:20-4 p.m. PDT, Wednesday, Aug. 10
Where: Islander FG (Level 1)

Intel Talk at The Diana Initiative 2022:
Fuzzing: A Must Have in Your Bug-Hunting Arsenal
Fuzz testing, aka fuzzing, is a dynamic software testing mechanism designed to detect a wide spectrum of bugs and potential security vulnerabilities from memory corruption to deadlocks, from undefined behavior to exception handling. In combination with appropriate program instrumentation, fuzzing has proven its effectiveness to software developers, security validators as well as security researchers. Although fuzzing can greatly assist in bug finding, it has its own sets of challenges, such as coverage wall and effective input generation. This talk, presented by Priyam Biswas, offensive security researcher at Intel, will explore the common roadblocks in fuzzing and some of the best practices to overcome these challenges as well as how to best utilize the potential of fuzzing to find bugs and security. In addition, this talk will highlight how fuzzing can be adopted in the firmware domain despite the tight coupling with the target hardware platform.
When: 8:30-9:30 a.m. PDT, Thursday, Aug. 11
Where: The Westin Las Vegas Hotel & Spa, Las Vegas
