  • Abstract
    Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have become a popular choice for general-purpose high-performance computing. Encryption and decryption algorithms such as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) have been implemented on GPUs to gain significant speedup. However, the security of the GPU architecture is not well studied, making it potentially risky to offload sensitive computation to GPUs. In this paper, we will introduce our ongoing work to improve GPU security against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
