A Survey on Passive Side-Channel Attacks and their Countermeasures for the NESSIE Public-Key Cryptosystems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Public-key cryptosystems are one of the basic building blocks of modern cryptographic systems. Therefore, it is important that they allow to be implemented resistant to several types of side-channel attacks. In this survey paper, we give an overview of the possible vulnerabilities of implementations of public-key cryptosystems that have been submitted to the NESSIE project and we additionally discuss some of the suggested countermeasures.

A Study on Side Channel Cryptanalysis in Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems
Mobile devices such as smartcards are penetrating in our daily life in order for us to be comfortable. When cryptographic schemes are implemented on computers such as smartcards, side channel attacks are particular menaces to them. Since electric power is provided from the outside of them, the attacker can observe the power consumption while they perform cryptographic operations. In side channe...
متن کاملA Survey of Differential Fault Analysis Against Classical RSA Implementations
Since the advent of side channel attacks, classical cryptanalysis is no longer sufficient to ensure the security of cryptographic algorithms. In practice, the implementation of algorithms on electronic devices is a potential source of leakage that an attacker can use to completely break a system [29, 15, 21]. The injection of faults during the execution of cryptographic algorithms is considered...
متن کاملOn the Vulnerability of Exponent Recodings for the Exponentiation against Side Channel Attacks
In this paper we propose a new side channel attack, where exponent recodings for public key cryptosystems such as RSA and ECDSA are considered. The known side channel attacks and countermeasures for public key cryptosystems were against the main stage (square and multiply stage) of the modular exponentiation (or the point multiplication on an elliptic curve). We have many algorithms which achie...
متن کاملHW/SW Co-design of TA/SPA-resistant Public-key Cryptosystems
This paper proposes a hardware/software (HW/SW) co-design methodology for secure Public-Key Cryptosystems. Our design flow allows to assess the risk for simple side-channel attacks including Timing Analysis (TA) and Simple Power Analysis (SPA) at an early design stage. It also allows to evaluate the quality of countermeasures against these attacks. The HW/SW co-design is illustrated with an Ell...
متن کاملSecure Elliptic Curve Exponentiation against RPA, ZRA, DPA, and SPA
SUMMARY In the execution on a smart card, side channel attacks such as the simple power analysis (SPA) and the differential power analysis (DPA) have become serious threat. Side channel attacks monitor the side channel information such as power consumption and even exploit the leakage information related to power consumption to reveal bits of a secret key d although d is hidden inside a smart c...
