Mobile Device Security: The case for side-channel resistance
نویسنده
چکیده
As the functionality of mobile devices has increased, so have the threats. These devices make attractive targets, given the sensitivity of user and corporate data they process and store, their emerging use for viewing protected content and conducting sensitive banking and payment transactions. Until recently, hardware and software based defenses for mobile platforms lagged behind those found in more mature systems.

A new CPA resistant software implementation for symmetric ciphers with smoothed power consumption: SIMON case study
In this paper we propose a new method for applying hiding countermeasure against CPA attacks. This method is for software implementation, based on smoothing power consumption of the device. This method is evaluated on the SIMON scheme as a case study; however, it is not relying on any specific SIMON features. Our new method includes only AND equivalent and XOR equivalent operations since every ...
متن کاملSide channel parameter characteristics of code injection attacks
Embedded systems are suggestive targets for code injection attacks in the recent years. Software protection mechanisms, and in general computers, are not usually applicable in embedded systems since they have limited resources like memory and process power. In this paper we investigate side channel characteristics of embedded systems and their applicability in code injection attack detection. T...
متن کاملSCA Resistance Analysis on FPGA Implementations of Sponge based MAC-PHOTON
PHOTON is a lightweight hash function which was proposed by Guo et al. in CRYPTO 2011. This is used in low-resource ubiquitous computing devices such as RFID tags, wireless sensor nodes, smart cards and mobile devices. PHOTON is built using sponge construction and it provides a new MAC function called MAC-PHOTON. This paper deals with FPGA implementations of MAC-PHOTON and their side-channel at...
متن کاملPerformance and Security Aspects of Client-Side SSL/TLS Processing on Mobile Devices
The SSL/TLS protocol is the de-facto standard for secure Internet communications, and supported by virtually all modern e-mail clients and Web browsers. With more and more PDAs and cell phones providing wireless e-mail and Web access, there is an increasing demand for establishing secure SSL/TLS connections on devices that are relatively constrained in terms of computational resources. Therefor...
متن کاملAn Evaluation of Hash Functions on a Power Analysis Resistant Processor Architecture
Cryptographic hash functions are an omnipresent component in security-critical software and devices; they support digital signature and data authenticity schemes, mechanisms for key derivation, pseudo-random number generation and so on. A criterion for candidate hash functions in the SHA-3 contest is resistance against side-channel analysis which is a major concern especially for mobile devices...
