What is ARCHISEC ?

ARCHISEC stands for "micro-ARCHItectural SECurity". The "microarchitecture" is an implementation of a processor to run an Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). It embeds architectural tricks to increase the performance level or reduce the consumption. For instance, the use of a cache memory optimizes the computation speed but can be the source of attacks exploiting the time difference between the state "hit" and "miss".
