摘要:
A process for testing an integrated circuit includes collecting a set of points of a physical property while the integrated circuit is executing a multiplication, dividing the set of points into a plurality subsets of lateral points, calculating an estimation of the value of the physical property for each subset, and applying to the subset of lateral points a step of horizontal transversal statistical processing by using the estimations of the value of the physical property, to verify a hypothesis about the variables manipulated by the integrated circuit.
摘要:
A microprocessor including a memory and a central processing unit configured to sign a binary word written in the memory, and during the reading of a binary word in the memory, verify the signature of the binary word and, if the signature is invalid, launching a protective action of the memory. According to the invention, the central processing unit is configured to execute a write instruction of a binary word accompanied by an invalid signature in a memory zone, so that a later read of the memory zone by the central processing unit launches the protective action.
摘要:
An integrated circuit including a multiplication function configured to execute a multiplication operation of two binary words x and y including a plurality of basic multiplication steps of components xi of word x by components yj of word y is described. The multiplication function of the integrated circuit is configured to execute two successive multiplications by modifying, in a random or pseudo-random manner, an order in which the basic multiplication steps of components xi by components yj are executed.

摘要:
A method and a device protected against hidden channel attacks includes a calculation of the result of the exponentiation of a data m by an exponent d. The method and the device are configured to execute only multiplications of identical large variables, by breaking down any multiplication of different large variables x, y into a combination of multiplications of identical large variables.
