JR70576 Internship on Cybersecurity
This Job Description is for an internship role.
As an intern at Micron Technology, Inc., you will have the opportunity to work for a global manufacturer of memory devices, one of the few companies to produce silicon chips worldwide. You will work in a state-of-the-art electronics laboratory to perform Side Channel Analysis penetration testing activities on a real-world device.
Justification
Side Channel Analysis is a set of techniques that exploit the naturally occurring correlation between processed data and physical variables (power consumption, electro-magnetic emission) to extract a secret key from a target device in a non-invasive way. Micron is a global company that covers a wide range of markets, ranging from enterprise datacenter to client PCs, to mobile to automotive. Micron’s products are trusted with data that can be sensitive for privacy, safety, or economic reasons; therefore, its products need to be tested and resistant against sophisticated attacks like Side Channel Analysis, applying known and future attacks as well as validating proposed mitigations. The candidate will learn the basics of Side Channel Analysis on a training target and apply Side Channel techniques to the company’s product portfolio, implementing the necessary tools to achieve the desired outcome. Finally, an architectural analysis of potential solutions will be carried out, enabling the candidate’s work to secure a real-world device.
Experience / Skills:
* Ability to implement Digital Signal Processing techniques
* Experience in the use of Digital Sampling Oscilloscopes and lab tools
* Expertise in the use of scripting languages, programming tools, and environments
* Extensive experience programming in Python
* Familiarity with embedded system development in C
* Experience with Linux operating system
* Curiosity and passion towards product security
* Ability to work independently with a minimum of day-to-day supervision
* Ability to work in a multi-functional team globally distributed
Education:
The ideal candidate is pursuing a master's degree in computer science, engineering, electronic engineering, or physics.
Additional Job Description
Designs and develops software and firmware tools to collect Side Channel traces from a real-world device, implements a Digital Signal Processing pipeline to pre-process the collected traces, implements statistical attacks to assess leakage levels (Test Leakage Vector Assessment) or implement attacks (Correlation Power Analysis). Evaluates architectural solutions to mitigate Side Channel Analysis attacks.
