Secret sharing based countermeasure for AES S-box
Yi Wang, Zheng Yuan, Zhican Li, Renfa Li · 2011
Cryptographic devices are vulnerable to Differential Power Attack (DPA) in embedded systems. Masking methods are popularly used to defend against DPA by masking all intermediate data with random values. However, masking schemes on algorithm level are vulnerable to Higher-Order DPA (HODPA), while on gate level glitch attack is the biggest threaten attack. In this paper, we proposed a secret sharing based countermeasure for AES S-box, which can defend against both HODPA and glitch attack. The experimental results show that our proposed design takes up less hardware resources and achieves faster speed compared with the existing methods.
