Fault injection attack is the process of attempting to acquire the information on-chip through inject artificially generated error code into the cryptographic algorithms operation (or perform) which is implemented in hardware or software. From the details above, the laser-assisted failure injection attacks have been proven particularly successful. In this paper, we propose an improved laser probing system for fault injection attack which is called the Dual-Laser FA tool set, a hybrid approach of the Flash-pumping laser and fiber laser. The main concept of the idea is to improve the laser probe through utilizing existing equipment. The proposed laser probe can be divided into two parts, which are Laser-I for laser cutting, and Laser-II for fault injection. We study the advantages of existing equipment, and consider the significant parameters such as energy, repetition rate, wavelength, etc. In this approach, it solves the high energy problem caused by flash-pumping laser in higher repetition frequency from the fiber laser.

The CRT-RSA cryptosystem is very vulnerable to fault insertion attacks in which an attacker can extract the secret prime factors p, q of modulus N by inserting an error during the computational operation on the cryptographic chip. In this paper, after implementing the CRT-RSA cryptosystem, we try to extract the secret key embedded in commercial microcontroller using optical injection tools such as laser beam or camera flash. As a result, we make sure that the commercial microcontroller is very vulnerable to fault insertion attacks using laser beam and camera flash, and can apply the prime factorization attack on CRT-RSA Cryptosystem.

The Miller algorithm is employed in the typical pairing computation such as Weil, Tate and Ate for implementing ID based cryptosystem. By analyzing the Mrabet's attack that is one of fault attacks against the Miller algorithm, this paper presents au efficient fault attack in Affine coordinate system, it is the most basic coordinates for construction of elliptic curve. The proposed attack is the effective model of a count check fault attack, it is verified to work well by practical fault injection experiments and can omit the probabilistic analysis that is required in the previous counter fault model.

The fault injection attack has been developed to extract the secret key which is embedded in a crypto module by injecting errors during the encryption process. Especially, an attacker can find master key of AES using injection of just one byte. In this paper, we proposed a countermeasure resistant to the these fault attacks by checking the differences between input and output. Using computer simulation, we also verified that the proposed AES implementation resistant to fault attack shows better fault detection ratio than previous other methods and has small computational overheads.

In recent years, significant advances in computers and communication technologies have made multimedia services feasible. As a result, various queueing models and cost models on architecture and data placement for multimedia server have been proposed. However, most of these models do not evaluate dependability of systems. In the design phase of a system, simulation is an important experimental means for performance and dependability analysis. Fault injection simulation has been used in evaluation of dependability metric. In this paper, we develop fault injection simulation model to analyze dependability of parallel video servers. In addition, we evaluate reliability and MTTF(Mean Time To Failure) of systems by using the simulator.

Recently, LVDC distribution network and DC microgrid with many advantages are being built. However, this LVDC distribution is an IT grounded or ungrounded system, and it is difficult to detect a ground fault because the fault current is small. In this paper, we propose a signal injection method for unipolar LVDC distribution network to detect ground fault in ungrounded LVDC distribution, and various analyzes were performed for ground fault detection.

Recently, fault injection techniques are used for evaluation of the fault coverage properties of safety-critical systems. This paper describes the TCN Fault Injector(TFI) implemented for TCN safety analysis. The implemented TFI injects network level faults to Intelligent MVB Controller that is designed for the Korean High Speed Train. With TFI, it can be verified whether the MVB controller meets TCN specification and its safety requirements.

In this paper, we propose a fault injection attack on AES-CMAC, which is defined by IETF. The fault assumption used in this attack is based on that introduced at FDTC'05. This attack can recover the 128-bit secret key of AES-CMAC by using only small number of fault injections. This result is the first known key recovery attack result on AES-CMAC.

As the computational technology using quantum computing has been developed, several threats on cryptographic systems are recently increasing. Therefore, many researches on post-quantum cryptosystems which can withstand the analysis attacks using quantum computers are actively underway. Nevertheless, the lattice-based NTRU system, one of the post-quantum cryptosystems, is pointed out that it may be vulnerable to the fault injection attack which uses the weakness of implementation of NTRU. In this paper, we investigate the fault injection attacks and their previous countermeasures on the NTRU signature system and propose a secure and efficient countermeasure to defeat it. As a simulation result, the proposed countermeasure has high fault detection ratio and low implementation costs.
