A differential fault analysis(DFA) is one of the most important side channel attacks on block ciphers. Most block ciphers, such as DES, AES, ARIA, SEED and so on., have been analysed by this attack. PRESENT is a 64-bit block cipher with 80/128-bit secret keys and has a 31-round SP-network. So far, several DFAs on PRESENT have been proposed. These attacks recovered 80, 128-bit secret keys of PRESENT with 8~64 fault injections. respectively. In this paper, we propose an improved DFA on PRESENT-80/128. Our attack can reduce the complexity of exhaustive search of PRESENT-80(resp. 128) to on average 1.7(resp. ) with 2(resp. 3) fault injections, From these results, our attack results are superior to known DFAs on PRESENT.
