<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-GB">Over the past decades, our digital lives have moved away from stationary devices (e.g. desktop computers) to computationally-powerful smart devices, such as smartphones and IoT devices. Not only do these devices bring
forth a new level of convenience for users, they are also much more vulnerable to attacks that compromise the confidentiality of users’ private data. In this talk, I will reflect on the security and privacy implications underlying smart devices, present examples
of vulnerabilities and countermeasures, and argue for why we need solutions that consider the interplay of software and hardware layers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
