An Improvement of Both Security and Reliability for Keccak Implementations on Smart Card

A Note on the Plaintexts Choice in Power Analysis Attacks

Power analysis attacks on block cipher implementations usually assume that the power traces used correspond to random plaintext choices. In this paper we make the reasonable assumption that these plaintexts can be chosen, and analyze in a simple model how it allows us to improve the attack. We consider both software implementations on a smart card and hardware implementations on FPGA. The concl...

Risk Analysis and Economic Load Dispatch Evaluation of Network with High Wind Power Penetration

This study based on investigation for integration wind power into conventional power system with its impact on fossil fuel generators and their generation management. Wind power as environmental friendly energy source can reduce the operational cost of the system due to considering no cost for energizing the generator in comparing with fossil fuel generators. However due to unpredictable nature...

An Estimated Model of Risk Analysis of Attacks on Smart Card Authentication Schemes

With the rapid growth of computer networks, more and more users access the remote server’s service in a distributed computing environment. Due to the fast development of the Internet and wireless communications, many activities like online-shopping, online banking, online voting are conducted over it. Authentication is one of the essential security features of network communication. The authent...

Improving Security For Elliptic Curve Implementations on Smart Cards: A Random Number Generator Test Unit

A High Speed KECCAK Coprocessor for Partitioned NSP Architecture on FPGA Platform

The messages in the latest security protocols such as IPSec, TLS and SSL must be handled by highspeed crypto systems. Current computationally extensive cryptographic implementations on di erent platforms such as software, Application Speci c Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) without adequate optimization achieve lesser throughput than should be possible. In the ...
