[HGI-News-de] HGI-Kolloquium am 27.06.2013: Impact of Localized Electromagnetic Field Measurements on Implementations of Asymmetric Cryptography

[Newsletter des Horst Görtz Instituts]

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

im Rahmen des HGI-Kolloquiums, organisiert vom Lehrstuhl für
Systemsicherheit und dem Horst-Görtz-Institut der Ruhr-Universität
Bochum, wird Johann Heyszl von der Fraunhofer Research Institution
AISEC, am nächsten Donnerstag, den 27. Juni 2013 um 11.00 Uhr s.t. in
Raum ID 04/413 über folgendes Thema referieren:

Impact of Localized Electromagnetic Field Measurements on
Implementations of Asymmetric Cryptography: Implementations of
cryptographic algorithms are threatened by side-channel analysis, which
denotes the recovery of secret keys through observations of e.g., the
current consumption of a device during cryptographic operations. In this
thesis, I investigate the use of high-resolution electromagnetic field
measurements for side-channel analysis. Contrary to previous
contributions about precise electromagnetic field measurements in
side-channel analysis, I specifically concentrate on localized aspects
of such measurements,  which means that the measurements are restricted
to a certain spatial extent. Previous publications either conclude that
localized  measurements of electromagnetic fields are impossible, or
show unconvincing, coarse localizations without dedicated exploitation
of such localized measurements. In this thesis, I improve the current
state of research by investigating the feasibility, quality and
dedicated use of localized electromagnetic field measurements.
