동형암호는 주목받는 차세대 프라이버시 보존 기술이다. 많은 기업들이 이를 활용한 서비스들을 제공하고 있다. 비록 동형암호가 수학적으로 안전성을 인정받았지만, 실행되는 프로그램으로써 동형암호는 부채널공격들에 취약하다는 연구 결과들이 보고되고 있다. 이 논문은 이런 부채널공격들에 대해 본석, 일반화하여 사용 가능한 gadget을 소개하며, 대응기법에 대한 가이드라인을 제안하고 그 효과와 한계에 대해 분석한다.

최근 사물인터넷 기술의 발전과 함께 하드웨어 디바이스에서 측정하는 센싱 데이터를 보호하기 위해 다양한 방식의 암호화 알고리즘을 채택하고 있다. 그 중 전 세계에서 가장 많이 사용하는 암호화 알고리즘인 AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) 또한 강력한 안전성을 바탕으로 많은 디바이스에서 사용되고 있다. 하지만 AES 알고리즘은 DPA(Differential Power Analysis), CPA(Correlation Power Analysis) 같은 부채널 분석 공격에 취약하다는 점이 발견되었다. 본 논문에서는 부채널 분석 공격대응방법 중 가장 널리 알려진 마스킹 기법을 적용한 AES 알고리즘의 소프트웨어 최적화 구현 기법을 제시한다.

Recently, with the development of Internet technology, various encryption algorithms have been adopted to protect the sensing data measured by hardware devices. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), the most widely used encryption algorithm in the world, is also used in many devices with strong security. However, it has been found that the AES algorithm is vulnerable to side channel analysis attacks such as Differential Power Analysis (DPA) and Correlation Power Analysis (CPA). In this paper, we present a software optimization implementation technique of the AES algorithm applying the most widely known masking technique among side channel analysis attack methods.

In this paper, we assume that the information leakage through side-channel signal may occur from the card payment terminal and newly introduce a real application attack model. The attack model is a side channel attack based on vibration signals, which are detected by a small sensor attached on card terminal by attacker. This study is similar to some other studies regarding side channel attack. However, this paper is different in that it is based on the non-language model. Because the financial transaction information such as a card number, password, mobile phone number and etc cannot have a constant pattern. In addition, there was no study about card terminal. Therefore, this new study is meaningful. We collected vibration signals on card terminal with a small wireless sensor and analyzed signal data with statistical signal processing techniques using spectrum of frequency domain and principal component analysis and pattern recognition algorithms. Finally, we evaluated the performances by using real data from the sensor.

Remote user authentication scheme is a cryptographic tool which permits a server to identify a remote user. In 2007, Wang et al. pointed out that Ku's remote user authentication scheme is vulnerable to a dictionary attack by obtaining some secret information in a smart card using side channel attacks. They also proposed a remote user authentication scheme which is secure against dictionary attack. In this paper, we analyze the protocol proposed by Wang et al. In the paper, it is claimed that the protocol is secure even though some values, which is stored in a smart card, are revealed to an adversary, However, we show that their protocol is insecure if the values are disclosed to an adversary.

A Post-Quantum Cryptographic algorithm NTRU, which is designed by considering the computational power of quantum computers, satisfies the mathematically security level. However, it should consider the characteristics of side-channel attacks such as power analysis attacks in hardware implementation. In this paper, we verify that the private key can be recovered by analyzing the power signal generated during the decryption process of NTRU. To recover the private keys, the Simple Power Analysis (SPA), Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) and Differential Deep Learning Analysis (DDLA) were all applicable. There is a shuffling technique as a basic countermeasure to counter such a power side-channel attack. Neverthe less, we propose a more effective method. The proposed method can prevent CPA and DDLA attacks by preventing leakage of power information for multiplication operations by only performing addition after accumulating each coefficient, rather than performing accumulation after multiplication for each index.

The SITM (See-In-The-Middle) proposed in CHES 2020 is a methodology for side-channel assisted differential cryptanalysis. This technique analyzes the power traces of unmasked middle rounds in partial masked SPN block cipher implementation, and performs differential analysis with the side channel information. Blockcipher GIFT is a lightweight blockcipher proposed in CHES 2017, designed to correct the well-known weaknesses of block cipher PRESENT and provide the efficient implementation. In this paper, we propose SITM attacks on partial masked implementation of GIFT-128. This attack targets 4-round and 6-round masked implementation of GIFT-128 and time/data complexity is 2^14.01 /2^14.01, 2¹⁶ /2¹⁶. In this paper, we compare the masterkey recovery logic available in SITM attacks, establishing a criterion for selecting more efficient logic depending on the situation. Finally, We introduce how to apply the this attack to GIFT-COFB, one of the finalist candidates in NIST lightweight cryptography standardization process.

A lightweight block cipher CHAM designed for suitability in resource-constrained environment has reasonable security level and high computational performance. Since this cipher may contain intrinsic weakness on side channel attack, it should adopt a countermeasure such as masking method. In this paper, we implement the masked CHAM cipher on 32-bit microprosessor Cortex-M3 platform to resist against side channel attack and analyze their computational performance. Based on the shortcoming of having many round functions, we apply reduced masking method to the implementation of CHAM cipher. As a result, we show that the CHAM-128/128 algorithm applied reduced masking technique requires additional operations about four times.

최근 사물인터넷(IoT) 환경에서 다양한 장비의 인터넷 통신이 가능하여 이에 적절한 경량 블록 암호 알고리즘에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. ICISC 2020에서 새로 발표된 국산 경량 블록 암호 알고리즘인 PIPO는 새로운 경량 S-Box를 조합한 unbalanced-Bridge 구조로 효율적인 비트슬라이싱 구현을 제공한다. IoT 환경에 PIPO가 적용되기 위해서는 부채널 분석에 대한 안전성이 보장되어야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 PIPO가 1차 CPA 공격에 취약함을 확인한다. 그리고 부채널 공격에 대응하기 위해 1차 마스킹 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 마스킹 기법은 1차 CPA 공격에 안전하였으며, 마스킹 적용 전보다 -375%의 성능을 보였다. 그리고 기존 기법보다 1287% 속도가 빨라진 것을 확인하였다.
