The masking countermeasure is very effective against side-channel attacks such as
differential power analysis. However, the design of masked circuits is a challenging problem …

In this paper we analyze recently introduced questions for masked logic styles in general
and for one such logic style called MDPL in particular. The DPA resistance of MDPL suffers …

Masking is an effective and widely-used countermeasure to thwart Differential Power
Analysis (DPA) attacks on symmetric cryptosystems. When a symmetric cipher involves a …

To counter side-channel attacks, a masking scheme randomly encodes keydependent
variables into several shares, and transforms operations into the masked correspondence …

Side-channel attacks extracting sensitive data from implementations have been considered
a major threat to the security of cryptographic schemes. This has elevated the need for …

One protection of cryptographic implementations against side-channel attacks is the
masking of the sensitive variables. In this article, we present a first-order masking that does …

An ever-growing number of devices are threatened by low-cost Side-Channel Analysis
(SCA) attacks and therefore require efficient protection mechanisms. Masking provides a …

Masking is a prominent strategy to protect cryptographic implementations against side-
channel analysis. Its popularity arises from the exponential security gains that can be …

Physical characteristics of electronic devices, leaking secret and sensitive information to an
adversary with physical access, pose a long-known threat to cryptographic hardware …

Side-channel adversaries represent real-world threats against (certified and uncertified)
cryptographic devices. Masking schemes represent prevailing countermeasures to reduce …
