  A Review of Blocking Side-Channel Threats in Parallel Cloud Systems

  By Yamuna Mundru, Atti Manga Devi, Manas Kumar Yogi

  Abstract: Side-channel attacks (SCAs) pose a critical security threat to parallel computing systems, particularly in shared cloud environments where multi-tenancy and resource contention create exploitable vulnerabilities. This study presents a comprehensive review of SCAs in parallel architectures, analyzing attack vectors such as cache-based exploits (e.g., Prime + Probe, Flush + Reload), timing attacks, power analysis, and network-based covert channels. We examine real-world cases including Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities that exposed fundamental …
