On the Optimization of Side-Channel Attacks by Advanced Stochastic Methods
نویسنده
چکیده
A number of papers on side-channel attacks have been published where the side-channel information was not exploited in an optimal manner, which reduced their efficiency. A good understanding of the source and the true risk potential of an attack is necessary to rate the effectiveness of possible countermeasures. This paper explains a general approach to optimize the efficiency of side-channel attacks by advanced stochastic methods. The approach and its benefits are illustrated by examples.

Templates vs. Stochastic Methods - A Performance Analysis For Side Channel Cryptanalysis
Template Attacks and the Stochastic Model provide advanced methods for side channel cryptanalysis that make use of ‘a-priori’ knowledge gained from a profiling step. For a systematic comparison of Template Attacks and the Stochastic Model, we use two sets of measurement data that originate from two different microcontrollers and setups. Our main contribution is to capture performance aspects ag...
متن کاملSide channel parameter characteristics of code injection attacks
Embedded systems are suggestive targets for code injection attacks in the recent years. Software protection mechanisms, and in general computers, are not usually applicable in embedded systems since they have limited resources like memory and process power. In this paper we investigate side channel characteristics of embedded systems and their applicability in code injection attack detection. T...

The second generation of digital video broadcasting (DVB-T2) standard utilizes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system to reduce and to compensate the channel effects by utilizing its estimation. Since wireless channels are inherently sparse, it is possible to utilize sparse representation (SR) methods to estimate the channel. In addition to sparsity feature of the channel, the...
