Gate-Level Side-Channel Leakage Assessment with Architecture Correlation Analysis

Pantea Kiaei, Yuan Yao, Zhenyuan Liu +7

While side-channel leakage is traditionally evaluated from a fabricated chip, it is more time-efficient and cost-effective to do so during the design phase of the chip. We present…
