چکیده

Differential Power Analysis (DPA) attacks find a statistical correlation between the power consumption of a cryptographic device and intermediate values within the computation. Randomization of intermediate values breaks statistical dependence and thus prevents such attacks. The current state of the art in countermeasures involves manual manipulation of low-level assembly language to insert random masking. This paper introduces an algorithm to automate the process allowing the development of compilers capable of protecting programs against DPA.

Hardware Countermeasures against DPA ? A Statistical Analysis of Their Effectiveness

Many hardware countermeasures against differential power analysis (DPA) attacks have been developed during the last years. Designers of cryptographic devices using such countermeasures to protect their devices have the challenging task to select and implement a suitable combination of countermeasures. Every device has different requirements, and so there is no universal solution to protect devi...

Attacking an AES-Enabled NFC Tag: Implications from Design to a Real-World Scenario

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology is the enabler for applications like the future internet of things (IoT), where security plays an important role. When integrating security to RFID tags, not only the cryptographic algorithms need to be secure but also their implementation. In this work we present differential power analysis (DPA) and differential electromagnetic analysis (DEMA) ...

A Generic Protection against High-Order Differential Power Analysis

Di erential Power Analysis (DPA) on smart-cards was introduced by Paul Kocher [11] in 1998. Since, many countermeasures have been introduced to protect cryptographic algorithms from DPA attacks. Unfortunately these features are known not to be e cient against high order DPA (even of second order). In these paper we will rst describe new specialized rst order attack and remind how are working hi...

DPA Countermeasures by Improving the Window Method

We propose three differential power analysis (DPA) countermeasures for securing the public key cryptosystems. All countermeasures are based on the window method, and can be used in both RSA and elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC). By using the optimal countermeasure, performance penalty is small. In comparison with k-ary method, computation time of our countermeasure is only 105% in 1024-bit RSA...

Lightweight Cryptography and DPA Countermeasures: A Survey

The dawning Ubiquitous Computing age demands a new attacker model for the myriads of pervasive computing devices used: since a potentially malicious user is in full control over the pervasive device, additionally to the cryptographic attacks the whole field of physical attacks has to be considered. Most notably are here so-called side channel attacks, such as Differential Power Analysis (DPA) a...
