The Other Side of The Coin: Analyzing Software Encoding Schemes Against Fault Injection Attacks

The versatility and cost of embedded systems have made it ubiquitous. Such wide-application exposes an embedded system to a variety of physical threats like side-channel attacks (SCA) and fault attacks (FA). Recently, a couple of software encoding schemes were proposed as a protection against SCA....
