Fast and Comprehensive Simulation Methodology for Layout-Based Power-Noise Side-Channel Leakage Analysis

Side-channel attacks can non-invasively extract secret information from hardware devices with a large number of “side-channel” measurements. For example, measuring the dynamic voltage drop of a cryptographic chip can disclose the secret keys by power-noise side-channel emission. To identify the design vulnerabilities and to verify the design countermeasures against side-channel attacks, design tim...
