Patrick’s proposal searches for a new methodology to find Rowhammer bit flips. Rowhammer is a hardware bug in modern memory and has been a concern for the semiconductor industry for almost a decade now. Details of existing solutions are often not disclosed, making it hard to assess their security guarantees. Patrick proposes to combine two state-of-the-art Rowhammer analysis techniques to automatically discover weaknesses in new devices.

Congratulations!
