The importance of this emerging information security and u-Korea or ubiquitous IT era, and the information security is more important. Especially, the small core device password encryption algorithm is an important part of the secure side channel attack cryptographic algorithms. However, it can provide high level of security, an adversary can attack small core device through implementation of cryptographic algorithms. In this paper, we explain about the correlation power analysis attack, which is the most dangerous type of side channel attack. Also, we implemented and experiment this attack. In our experiment, we used ATmega cryptographic module to configure and the oscilloscope to obtain the experimental result, and MATLAB program for the verification process.
