چکیده

We present Inferential Power Analysis (IPA), a new class of attacks based on power analysis. An IPA attack has two stages: a profiling stage and a key extraction stage. In the profiling stage, intratrace differencing, averaging, and other statistical operations are performed on a large number of power traces to learn details of the implementation, leading to the location and identification of key bits. In the key extraction stage, the key is obtained from a very few power traces; we have successfully extracted keys from a single trace. Compared to differential power analysis, IPA has the advantages that the attacker does not need either plaintext or ciphertext, and that, in the key extraction stage, a key can be obtained from a small number of traces.

A new CPA resistant software implementation for symmetric ciphers with smoothed power consumption: SIMON case study

In this paper we propose a new method for applying hiding countermeasure against CPA attacks. This method is for software implementation, based on smoothing power consumption of the device. This method is evaluated on the SIMON scheme as a case study; however, it is not relying on any specific SIMON features. Our new method includes only AND equivalent and XOR equivalent operations since every ...

A survey on RPL attacks and their countermeasures

RPL (Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks) has been designed for low power networks with high packet loss. Generally, devices with low processing power and limited memory are used in this type of network. IoT (Internet of Things) is a typical example of low power lossy networks. In this technology, objects are interconnected through a network consisted of low-power circuits. Exampl...

A New Class of Decentralized Interaction Estimators for Load Frequency Control in Multi-Area Power Systems

Load Frequency Control (LFC) has received considerable attention during last decades. This paper proposes a new method for designing decentralized interaction estimators for interconnected large-scale systems and utilizes it to multi-area power systems. For each local area, a local estimator is designed to estimate the interactions of this area using only the local output measurements. In fact,...

On Bivariate Generalized Exponential-Power Series Class of Distributions

In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions by compounding the bivariate generalized exponential and power-series distributions. This new class contains the bivariate generalized exponential-Poisson, bivariate generalized exponential-logarithmic, bivariate generalized exponential-binomial and bivariate generalized exponential-negative binomial distributions as specia...

Threshold Implementation as a Countermeasure against Power Analysis Attacks

One of the usual ways to find sensitive data or secret parameters of cryptographic devices is to use their physical leakages. Power analysis is one of the attacks which lay in such a model. In comparison with other types of side-channels, power analysis is so efficient and has a high success rate. So it is important to provide a countermeasure against it. Different types of countermeasures use ...
