Side Channel Attacks

Side Channel attacks on hardware are hard to avoid, detect and mitigate. But this should not stop us from trying. The CrypTech platform should be developed with side channel issues in mind. This page tries to collect information about relevant side channel attacks, mitigation strategies, side channel resistant design methods (blinding for example) and detection.
