Side Channels, Faults & Hardware Attacks
Where electricity and physics become attacks. Computation is physical, so it leaks (power, electromagnetic, timing, sound, light), it lingers (memory remanence), and it can be disturbed (Rowhammer, fault injection) — and the supply chain that builds the hardware can be subverted. Each stage is a real attack class and its real defense.
