Hound: Locating Cryptographic Primitives in Desynchronized Side-Channel Traces Using Deep-Learning
·
arXiv:2408.06296v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Side-channel attacks allow to extract sensitive information from cryptographic primitives by correlating the partially known computed data and the measured side-channel signal. Starting from the raw side-channel trace, the preprocessing of the side-channel trace to pinpoint the time at which each cryptographic primitive is executed, and, then, to re-align all…
