In the recent years, power attacks were widely investigated, and so various countermeasures have been proposed. In the case of block ciphers, masking methods that blind the intermediate results in the algorithm computations(encryption, decryption, and key-schedule) are well-known. Applications of masking methods are able to vary in different block ciphers, therefore suitable masking methods about each ciphers have been researched. Existed methods of ARIA have many revisions of mask value. And because existed masking methods pay no regard for key schedule, secret information can be exposed. In the case of ARIA, this problem is more serious than different block ciphers. Therefore we proposes an efficient masking scheme of ARIA including the key-schedule. Our method reduces time-complexity of ARIA encryption, and solve table-size problem of the general ARIA masking scheme from 256*8 byte to 256*6 byte.
