Understanding the methodology behind side-channel attacks
Rambus Cryptography Research Fellow Pankaj Rohatgi recently penned an in-depth EDN article describing the methodology behind side-channel attacks.
The technique, says Rohatgi, relies on the fact that any physical realization of cryptography in hardware or software cannot be an “atomic black box” as assumed by the traditional mathematical proofs of security. Simply put, physical systems routinely…
