Electromagnetic information leakage for side-channel analysis of cryptographic modules

Noriyasu Homma, Takafumi Aoki, Ayano Satoh

Open publisher page 20 citations

Abstract

A new class of physical attacks against cryptographic modules, which is called the side-channel attack, is now drawing much attention. Side-channel attacks exploit information leakage from a physical implementation, such as power consumption and electro-magnetic (EM) radiation. This paper presents an overview of the recent trends in side-channel attacks, including EM analysis attacks, and related activities in the security evaluation of cryptographic modules.
