Hardware security and trust have become a pressing issue during the last two decades due
to the globalization of the semiconductor supply chain and ubiquitous network connection of …

Security is a concern in the design of a wide range of embedded systems. Extensive
research has been devoted to the development of cryptographic algorithms that provide the …

Traditionally, countermeasures against physical attacks are integrated into the
implementation of cryptographic primitives after the algorithms have been designed for …

This paper describes context-sensitive fencing (CSF), a microcode-level defense against
multiple variants of Spectre. CSF leverages the ability to dynamically alter the decoding of …

Hardware designers invest a significant design effort when implementing computationally
intensive cryptographic algorithms onto constrained embedded devices to match the …

Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is a kind of programmable chip that is widely used in
many areas, including automotive electronics, medical devices, military and consumer …

Traditionally, the only standard method of testing that has consistently provided high fault
coverage has been scan test due to the high controllability and high observability this …

We present a method of protecting a hardware implementation of the advanced encryption
standard (AES) against a side-channel attack known as differential fault analysis attack. The …

In order to prevent the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) from suffering from differential
fault attacks, the technique of error detection can be adopted to detect the errors during …

By injecting faults, active physical attacks pose serious threats to cryptographic hardware
where Concurrent Error Detection (CED) schemes are promising countermeasures. They …
