“…The powers g i (mod n) (i=1,2,…,2 m-1 ) can be pre-computed and used in the multipli-in [15] , where techniques to strengthen cross correlation attack by averaging correlation values and comparing to a threshold were described. The CCAs against Montgomery ladder implementation of the RSA algorithm were analyzed in [16][17][18], and the voting mechanism and novel one or multi reference bits approaches were proposed.…”

“…However, the weakness of these countermeasures is that one operand in the multiplication is fixed and the same pre-computed value is used when the same bits of the private key are manipulated. Various countermeasures using the message blinding method may still be vulnerable to Cross Correlation Attacks [13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

The message blinding method is the most efficient and secure countermeasure against first-order differential power analysis(DPA). Although cross correlation attacks(CCAs) were given for defeating message blinding methods, however searching for correlation points is difficult for noise, misalignment in practical environment. In this paper, we propose an optimized cross correlation power attack for message blinding exponentiation algorithms. The attack method can select the more correlative power points of share one operation in the modular multiplication by comparing variances between correlation coefficients. Further we demonstrate that the attack method is more efficient in experiments with hardware implementation of RSA on a crypto chip card. In addition to the proposed CCA method can recovery all 1024bits secret key and recognition rate increases to 100% even when the recorded signals are noisy.

An improved decision mechanism to the previously advertised correlation power analysis (CPA) type of attack which is applied on the Montgomery ladder exponentiation steps of the Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) RSA implementation is proposed. As the nature of this previous attack, for each m-bit sized windows of the key bits, ratios of the correlation values of the correct type vector with all the other candidate vectors must also exist between the peak value of the correlation curve of the correct type vector and of the other candidate vectors. As a novelty, proposed method uses this property; namely, it searches the closest matching between these ratios to decide the correct bit type vector. It is experimentally and theoretically shown that this decision mechanism requires lesser number of traces to extract the correct key bit types compared with the previous CPA type attack. Also this decision methodology can be used to improve the effectiveness of other possible CPA type of attacks which construct power leakage models for more than one bit.
