Automated Side-Channel Attacks using Black-Box Neural Architecture Search
Pritha Gupta, Jan Peter Drees, Eyke Hüllermeier · 2023
The application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to break cryptographic systems through hardware side-channels facilitated rapid and adaptable attacks on cryptographic systems like smart cards and Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs). However, current approaches rely on manually designed CNN architectures by domain experts, which are time-consuming and impractical for attacking new systems.
