Understanding Anti-Tamper Technology: Part 2
In part one of this three-part blog series, we discussed the low-cost attacks that target security chips such as protocol and software attacks, brute force glitch attacks, as well environmental attacks. In this blog post, we explore attacks executed by more sophisticated adversaries. These include side-channel attacks, clocking attacks, fault injection, and infrared emission analysis.
Sophisticated attackers – who might be working at the university level – can research the security model of your chip. Specifically, they can analyze your chip security using techniques such as side-channel attacks, clocking attacks, fault injections, and infrared emission analysis. Let’s take a closer look at these techniques below.
