Abstract :
This paper explains the different timing attacks on AES and possible approaches/ precautions which can be taken to avoid or minimize the danger of these attacks. The nature and cause of possibilities of attack on AES are mentioned along with the basic model of the attack which was performed to show the weakness of the cipher even after large claims of its non-existence from Authorities and its creators.
