Power analysis attacks allow the extraction of secret information from smart cards. Smart cards are used in many applications including banking, mobile communications, pay TV, and electronic signatures. In all these applications, the security of the smart cards is of crucial importance. Power Analysis Attacks: Revealing the Secrets of Smart Cards is the first comprehensive treatment of power analysis attacks and countermeasures. Based on the principle that the only way to defend against power analysis attacks is to understand them, this book explains how power analysis attacks work. Using many examples, it discusses simple and differential power analysis as well as advanced techniques like template attacks. Furthermore, the authors provide an extensive discussion of countermeasures like shuffling, masking, and DPA-resistant logic styles. By analyzing the pros and cons of the different countermeasures, this volume allows practitioners to decide how to protect smart cards.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Information Security and Cryptology, ICISC 2007, held in Seoul, Korea, November 29-30, 2007. The papers are organized in topical sections on cryptoanalysis, access control, system security, biometrics, cryptographic protocols, hash functions, block and stream ciphers, copyright protection, smart/java cards, elliptic curve cryptosystems as well as authentication and authorization.
"Side Channel Attacks (SCA) exploit weaknesses in implementations of cryptographic functions resulting from unintended inputs and outputs such as execution timing, power consumption, electromagnetic radiation, thermal and acoustic emanations. Power Analysis Attacks (PAA) are a type of SCA in which an attacker measures the power consumption of a cryptographic device during normal execution. An attempt is then made to uncover a relationship between the instantaneous power consumption and secret key information. PAAs can be subdivided into Simple Power Analysis (SPA), Differential Power Analysis (DPA), and Correlation Power Analysis (CPA). Many attacks have been documented since PAAs were first described in 1998. But since they often vary significantly, it is difficult to directly compare the vulnerability of the implementations used in each. Research is necessary to identify and develop standard methods of evaluating the vulnerability of cryptographic implementations to PAAs. This thesis devices methodologies for performing PAAs on hardware implementations of AES. The process is divided into identification, extraction, and evaluation stages. The extraction stage is outlined for both simulated power consumption waveforms as well as for waveforms captured from physical implementations. An AES encryption hardware design is developed for the experiment. The hardware design is synthesized with the Synopsys 130-nm CMOS standard cell library. Simulated instantaneous power consumption waveforms are generated with Synopsys PrimeTime PX. Single and multiple-bit DPA attacks are performed on the waveforms. Improvements are applied in order to automate and improve the precision and performance of the system. The attacks on the simulated power waveforms are successful. The correct key byte is identified in 15 of the 16 single-bit attacks after 10,000 traces. the single-bit attack which does not uniquely identify the correct key byte becomes successful after 15,000 or more traces are applied. The key byte is found in 36 of the 38 multiple-bit attacks. The main contribution of this work is a methodology and simulation environment which can be used to design hardware which is resistant to PAA and determine and compare vulnerability."--Abstract.

This book is a select collection of edited papers from the International Conference on Security of Information and Networks (SIN 2007) on the main theme of Information Assurance, Security, and Public Policy. SIN 2007 was hosted by the Eastern Mediterranean University in Gazimagusa, North Cyprus and co-organized by the Istanbul Technical University, Turkey. While SIN 2007 covered all areas of information and network security, the papers included here focused on the following topics: - cryptology: design and analysis of cryptographic algorithms, hardware and software implementations of cryptographic algorithms, and steganography; - network security: authentication, authorization and access control, privacy, intrusion detection, grid security, and mobile and personal area networks; - IT governance: information security management systems, risk and threat analysis, and information security policies. They represent an interesting mix of innovative academic research and experience reports from practitioners. This is further complemented by a number of invited papers providing excellent overviews: - Elisabeth Oswald, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK: Power Analysis Attack: A Very Brief Introduction; - Marc Joye, Thomson R&D, France: On White-Box Cryptography; - Bart Preneel, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Leuven, Belgium: Research Challenges in Cryptology; - Mehmet Ufuk Caglayan, Bogazici University, Turkey: Secure Routing in Ad Hoc Networks and Model Checking.
