In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes an input sensor, a memory, a comparator, and a processor. The processor is communicatively coupled to the input sensor, the memory, and the comparator to control operation of the input sensor, the memory, and the comparator. The input sensor is to measure a bus signal of a computing device. The memory is to store the bus signal that is measured and a reference bus signal. The comparator is to compare the bus signal that is measured to the reference bus signal to detect a hardware security attack.

Detection of hardware security attacks

In some embodiments, a computer network comprises a computing engine comprising a plurality of compute nodes and a load balancer coupled to the computing engine and coupled to a processor and a memory module, wherein the memory module comprises logic instructions which, when executed by the processor, configure the processor to receive, in the load balancer, a connection request from a first client computing device and a corresponding first persistence identifier for computing services provided by a first compute node managed by the load balancer, restore, on the first compute node, a stored computing session when the first persistence identifier is associated with the stored computing session, initiate, on the first compute node, a generic computing session when the first persistence identifier is not associated with any stored computing session, and assign the connection request from the first client computing device to the first compute node.
