Power analysis attacks allow the extraction of secret information from smart cards. Smart cards are used in many applications including banking, mobile communications, pay TV, and electronic signatures. In all these applications, the security of the smart cards is of crucial importance.

Power Analysis Attacks: Revealing the Secrets of Smart Cards is the first comprehensive treatment of power analysis attacks and countermeasures. Based on the principle that the only way to defend against power analysis attacks is to understand them, this book explains how power analysis attacks work. Using many examples, it discusses simple and differential power analysis as well as advanced techniques like template attacks. Furthermore, the authors provide an extensive discussion of countermeasures like shuffling, masking, and DPA-resistant logic styles.  By analyzing the pros and cons of the different countermeasures, this volume allows practitioners to decide how to protect smart cards.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Cryptographer''s Track at the RSA Conference 2024, CT-RSA 2024, held in San Francisco, CA, USA, during May 6–9, 2024.

The 18 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The conference presents papers on subjects such as public key cryptography; symmetric cryptography; signatures; homomorphic encryption; identity-based encryption; constructions; and threshold signatures and fault attacks.

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 7th International Workshop on Constructive Side-Channel Analysis and Secure Design, COSADE 2016, held in Graz, Austria, in April 2016. The 12 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: security and physical attacks; side-channel analysis (case studies); fault analysis; and side-channel analysis (tools).

The two-volume proceedings LNCS 9056 + 9057 constitutes the proceedings of the 34th Annual International Conference on the Theory and Applications of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT 2015, held in Sofia, Bulgaria, in April 2015.

The 57 full papers included in these volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 194 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections named: honorable mentions, random number generators, number field sieve, algorithmic cryptanalysis, symmetric cryptanalysis, hash functions, evaluation implementation, masking, fully homomorphic encryption, related-key attacks, fully monomorphic encryption, efficient two-party protocols, symmetric cryptanalysis, lattices, signatures, zero-knowledge proofs, leakage-resilient cryptography, garbled circuits, crypto currencies, secret sharing, outsourcing computations, obfuscation and e-voting, multi-party computations, encryption, resistant protocols, key exchange, quantum cryptography, and discrete logarithms.
