Abstract :
Many studies were devoted to the analysis and the detection of electromagnetic attacks against critical electronic systems at the system or the component levels. Some attempts have been made to correlate effects scenarios with events logged by the kernel of the operating system (OS) of commercial-off-the-shelf computer running Windows. Due to the closed principle of the last OS, we decided to perform such an analysis on a computer running a Linux distribution in which a complete access to logs is available. It will be demonstrated that a computer running such an open OS allows detecting the perturbations induced by intentional electromagnetic interferences at different levels of the targeted computer.
