| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aiming for developing a method to predict security of cryptographic devices against side-channel attacks that is a new cryptanalytic method using physical behavior of the devices, we firstly confirmed that strength of side-channel information leakage can be simulated with an equivalent circuit model of an integrated circuit (IC) implementing a cryptographic circuit. Next, we indicated that the behavior of the cryptographic IC leaking the side-channel information can be seen in the equivalent circuit model. This can help develop a new and more efficient countermeasures to the attacks. Finally, we identified signal-to-noise ratios of side-channel traces as an information leakage potential to be used in prediction of side-channel attack security.
