  • Abstract
    Chosen-message pair Simple Power Analysis (SPA) attacks were proposed by Boer, Yen and Homma, and are attack methods based on searches for collisions of modular multiplication. However, searching for collisions is difficult in real environments. To circumvent this problem, we propose the Simple Power Clustering Attack (SPCA), which can automatically identify the modular multiplication collision. The insignificant effects of collision attacks were validated in an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) environment. After treatment with SPCA, the automatic secret key recognition rate increased to 99%.
