Keeping web-browsing data safe from hackers

Malicious agents can use machine learning to launch powerful attacks that steal information in ways that are tough to prevent and often even more difficult to study. Attackers can capture data that “leaks” between software programs running on the same computer.

These are called “side-channel attacks” because information is acquired through a channel not meant for communication. Researchers at MIT……
