The original cold boot paper was released in 2008 and they only demonstrated the attack on DDR2 memory [1]. A paper published in 2013 [2] discussed cold boot on modern hardware. "This study is based on 5 different computer
systems. While we demonstrate that simple warm
reset attacks (not cutting power) are effective even
against DDR3 systems, we were
not
able to detect
any data remanence for DDR3 after cold boots. Even
cooling the RAM chips did not reveal data remanence
beyond cold boots. This leads us to the claim that
cold boot attacks relying on RAM remanence beyond
cold boots are not possible against modern DDR3
RAM chips." [1] https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/sec08/tech/full_papers/h... [2] http://www1.cs.fau.de/filepool/projects/coldboot/fares_coldb... (search for DDR3 to find the relevant sections) |
