Power Analysis Attacks and Countermeasures for ECC

Gao Liang · Computer Knowledge and Technology · 2007

For the advantages of security and computation,more and more people pay attentions to Elliptic Curve Cryptography(ECC). It's a tendency for ECC to take the place of RSA. The present of power analysis attacks give us a new way to examine the security of smart-card. This paper will discuss the Simple Power Analysis(SPA) attacks and Differential Power Analysis(DPA) attacks and their countermeasures.
