The Need for Speed: A Fast Guessing Entropy Calculation for Deep Learning-Based SCA

The adoption of deep neural networks for profiling side-channel attacks opened new perspectives for leakage detection. Recent publications showed that cryptographic implementations featuring different countermeasures could be broken without feature selection or trace preprocessing. This success comes with a high price: an extensive...

Semi-Supervised Learning In Side-Channel Attacks

One of the most potent attacks against cryptographic implementations nowadays is side-channel attacks. Side-channel attacks use unintended leakages in the implementation, for example, electromagnetic radiation, to retrieve the secret key. Over time side-channel attacks have become more powerful, and recently the community has shifted towards...
