Understanding the methodology behind side-channel attacks
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/understanding-the-methodology-behind-side-channel-attacks-2/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 […]

Moore’s Law accelerates smart sensor evolution
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/moores-law-accelerates-smart-sensor-evolution-2/Named after Intel co-founder Gordon E. Moore, Moore’s Law observes that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. According to Intel, the continuation of Moore’s Law means the rate of progress in the semiconductor space will far surpass that of nearly all other industries. In fact, the future […]
Side channel attacks reportedly targeted Trusted Platform Modules
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/side-channel-attacks-reportedly-targeted-trusted-platform-modules-2/Security analysts reportedly explored how to extract private encryption keys from Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) by “measuring electromagnetic signals emanating” from the chips. “This is what cryptographers call differential power analysis, a sophisticated side-channel attack in which spies use sensors or other devices to study the power consumption of a chip while it encrypts and […]
