In this article we describe an efficient AES software implementation that is well suited for 8-
bit smart cards and resistant against power analysis attacks. Our implementation masks the …

The design and analysis of lightweight block ciphers has been a very active research area
over the last couple of years, with many innovative proposals trying to optimize different …

The development of masking schemes to secure AES implementations against side channel
attacks is a topic of ongoing research. Many different approaches focus on the AES S-box …

A false key-based advanced encryption standard (AES) technique is proposed to prevent
the stored secret key leaking from the substitution-box under correlation power analysis …

Unprotected implementations of cryptographic primitives are vulnerable to physical attacks.
While the adversary only needs to succeed in one out of many attack methods, the …

Algebraic side-channel attacks have been recently introduced as a powerful cryptanalysis
technique against block ciphers. These attacks represent both a target algorithm and its …

As the use of wireless devices becomes widespread, so does the need for strong and
secure transport protocols. Even with this intensified need for securing systems, using …

This paper proposes an efficient and secure higher-order masking algorithm for AES S-box
that consumes the most computation time of the higher-order masked AES. During the past …

Side-channel collision attacks were proposed in [1] and applied to AES in [2]. These are
based on detecting collisions in certain positions of the internal state after the first AES round …

To guarantee the security of a cryptographic implementation against Side Channel Attacks,
a common approach is to formally prove the security of the corresponding scheme in a …
