From Speculation to Security Practical and Efficient Information Flow Tracking Using Speculative Hardware

Dynamic information flow tracking (also known as taint tracking) is an appealing approach to combat various security attacks. However, the performance of applications can severely degrade without hardware support for tracking taints. This paper observes that information flow tracking can be efficien...
