ETH Zurich researchers discover new security vulnerability in Intel processors
Research
ETH Zurich
Computer scientists at ETH Zurich discover new class of vulnerabilities in Intel processors, allowing them to break down barriers between different users of a processor using carefully crafted instruction sequences. Entire processor memory can be read by employing quick, repeated attacks.
Making augmented reality suitable for society
TechTransfer
ETH Zurich
ETH Zurich is establishing a new research hub for augmented reality that involves close collaboration with Google. One of the ETH-Co-heads, Christian Holz, explains the importance of networking in this field. 
AI provides reliable answers with less computational overhead
Research
ETH Zurich
ETH Zurich researchers have developed a method that makes AI responses increasingly reliable. Their algorithm specifically selects data relevant to the question. In addition, even AI models up to 40 times smaller achieve the same output performance as the best large AI models.
How to detect criminal activities on Signal or WhatsApp?
Research
EPFL
Encryption is a way to ensure that data sent from one device to another can’t be read if intercepted. But what if the data pertains to criminal activity? Ana-Maria Cretu from EPFL’s Security and Privacy Engineering Lab shares her expertise on safety versus privacy concerns.
Breakthroughs in key industry of the future
Research
ETH Board PSI
In 2024, PSI reported two breakthroughs  in connection with microchips, both on  a similar scale. Single­digit nanometre ranges can now be achieved in semicon­ductor production with photolithography and when analysing microchips – record levels of precision!
Tiny component for record-breaking bandwidth
Research
ETH Zurich
A modulator developed by researchers from ETH Zurich has broken the terahertz mark. The ultrafast component efficiently transmits large volumes of data into the fibre-optic network in a short space of time.
