Didn't DDR3 ram basically make cold boot attacks obsolete? They don't hold any voltage when you power down long enough to even freeze the chips

- MichaelGG 13y agoInteresting, that sounds correct: http://www1.cs.fau.de/filepool/projects/coldboot/fares_coldboot.pdf http://www1.cs.fau.de/filepool/projects/coldboot/fares_coldb... Even with cooling they weren't able to recover. However, a warm reboot, would still work. Speculating, but some laptops might have a way to force a reboot like some machines have a reset button. That'd at least restart the system, although proper BIOS config should prevent that from being useful.
- sigstoat 13y agohm, it looks to me like they just cover the sorts of temperatures you see in refrigerators. any idea if work has been done on cryogenic temperatures?
