  abstract  = {Transient execution attacks like Spectre, Meltdown 
and Foreshadow have shown that combinations of microarchitectural 
side-channels can be exploited to create side-channel 
leaks that are greater than the sum of their parts. While both 
hardware and software mitigations have been proposed against 
these attacks, provable security has remained elusive. 
This paper introduces a formal methodology for enabling 
secure speculative execution on modern processors. We propose  
a new class of information flow security properties called trace 
property-dependent observational determinism (TPOD). We use 
this class to formulate a secure speculation property. Our property 
formulation and associated adversary models help formalize 
the class of transient execution vulnerabilities. We demonstrate 
applicability of our methodology by verifying secure speculation  
for several illustrative programs.},
