Comparison of some mask protections of DES against power analysis
Kai Cao, Dawu Gu, Zheng Guo, Junrong Liu · 2015
Power analysis, proposed by Paul Kocher in 1998, is now a common kind of side channel attack on cryptographic devices.Mask technology protects devices by randomizing the intermediate values that are processed by cryptographic devices which makes the power consumption independent of the intermediate values.In this paper, we introduce three mask protections, and make a comparison of them by attacking them on simulation platform.
