In memory-related applications such as smart cards and biometric solutions, cache memory security is a significant concern. The goal of this study is to examine different cache memory vulnerabilities and provide countermeasures to prevent such attacks and ensure cache memory security. The information saved in cache memory may be retrieved at any time. The invader is at risk of gaining access to this information. According to statistical analysis, techniques such as side channel attacks, timing attacks, and power-based assaults are used to test the security of information in caches. Using methods such as code convertors, layered XOR operations, extended Hamming codes, and multi-bit clustered ECC, solutions such as secure cryptography-based algorithms, secure aware cache mapping, and low power cache architecture are discussed. The improvement and authentication of cache memory security will result in a variety of applications including smart cards and biometric applications where data secrecy is critical.
