Analytical Classifications of Side Channel Attacks, Glitch Attacks and Fault Injection Techniques: Their Countermeasures

Cryptographic devices have many encrypted and secured solutions to protect them against attacks. Hardware engineers infuse lot of time and effort in implementing cryptographic algorithms, keeping the analysis of design constraints into consideration. Engineer's face a challenge for building resistant free embedded system against attacks called as side channel attacks. Therefore, there is a strong need to address issues related to side channel attacks. This paper is a review into the field of hardware security that will provide a deep investigation of types of side channel attacks & fault injection techniques with some real life examples further enhancing the researcher's vision to build efficient and secure systems in order to thwart attacks. Researchers will also be acquainted with some countermeasures against various attacks. Lastly, we have also discussed some future perspective that can give upcoming researchers a new domain to work on.
