Abstract

Electromagnetic fault injections are produced on secured ICs aiming to break crypto codes. We describe in this paper the whole chain of optimization necessary to achieve this goal, namely 1/ physical optimization of near-field probe and setup, 2/ signal management in timing, shape, and localization to induce the fault while beating countermeasures and 3/ understanding of fault propagation in logic to eventually protect future ICs.
