Gururaj Saileshwar is a researcher at the University of Toronto focusing on Hardware Security, Computer Architecture, and Memory Systems. His work addresses critical vulnerabilities in memory systems, such as rowhammer attacks, cache side-channel vulnerabilities, and secure-memory design. He has developed innovative mitigation techniques, including randomized row-swap, hybrid tracking, and scalable rowhammer mitigation strategies. His research also explores secure-memory design for error-correcting memories and low-overhead secure memory architectures. Additionally, he investigates cache covert-channel attacks, scheduler queue contention side channels, and hardware support for memory safety and fuzzing performance. His contributions aim to enhance the security and reliability of modern computing systems.
