|
The AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a new block
cipher standard published by the US government in November
2001. As a consequence, there is a growing interest
in efficient implementations of the AES. For many applications,
these implementations need to be resistant against
side channel attacks, that is, it should not be too easy to
extract secret information from physical measurements on
the device. This article presents the first results on the feasibility
of power analysis attack against an AES hardware
implementation. Our attack is targeted against an ASIC implementation
of the AES developed by the ETH Zurich. We
show how to build a reliable measurement setup and how to
improve the correlation coefficients, i.e., the signal to noise
ratio for our measurements. Our approach is also the first
step to link a behavior HDL simulator generated simulated
power measurements to real power measurements.
