Fault analysis, belonging to indirect attack, is a cryptanalysis technique for the physical implementation of cryptosystem. In this paper, we propose a fault attack on the Balanced Shrinking Generator. The results show that the attacker can obtain the secret key by analyzing faulty output sequences which is produced by changing control clock of one of Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSR). Therefore, the balanced shrinking generator has a trouble in hardware implementation.
