The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $227,059 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to study, characterize, and develop mitigations for "FPGA pentimenti" - data leaks between subsequent users of shared cloud-based field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) due to analog side-channel effects. The project aims to establish bounds on data recovery capabilities and identify effective defenses for cloud FPGA security from the perspectives of the manufacturer, cloud provider, and end-user. The overall goals are to advance techniques for securing cloud infrastructure and promote education and research in FPGA security. The project will run from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2028.
