Question

The Prime+Probe cache side channel can be used to profile a co-resident VM because...

The Attacker and Victim VM's share a Network Interface Card (NIC).

Access times for Attacker VM data during the "Probe" phase are not affected by the Victim VM's access patterns.

Cache entry data loaded by the Victim VM during the "Wait" Phase can be directly read by the Attacker VM during the "Probe" phase.

Cache entries loaded by the Attacker VM during the "Prime" phase will be evicted by the Victim VM during the "Wait" phase.
