Differential Timing Attack Against the Software Implementation of RSA

Junjian Tian · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2011

The former timing attack against RSA algorithm is either just in theory research,or taken in experiment under specifical condition.The object of timing attack mostly is smart card.The former has the disadvantage of low feasibility and small range.We aim to overcome the disadvantage.This thesis provides a feasible timing attack scheme,based the differential statistics algorithm and analysis of variance.Finally we take the attack scheme into practice on the software implementation of RSA,the result indicates that our attack scheme has a better feasibility than the former,and also extend the attack object to RSA with different length key.
