METHODS AND APPARATUS TO DETECT SIDE-CHANNEL ATTACKS

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to identify a side-channel attack are disclosed. Example instructions cause one or more processors to generate an event vector based on one or more counts corresponding to tasks performed by a central processing unit; determine distances between the event vector and weight vectors of neurons in a self-organizing map; select a neuron of the neurons that results based on a determined distance; identify neurons that neighbor the selected neuron; and update at least one of a weight vector of the selected neuron or weight vectors of the neighboring neurons based on the determined distance of the selected neuron.
