Abstract:

At present, in ECC side channel attacks and various anti attack measures, the most research is power consumption attack. For attackers, due to the simple power analysis (SPA) referring to the implementation algorithm of cryptographic devices, it makes more difficult to attack the key. However, differential power analysis (DPA) can recover the correct key via the statistical analysis of multiple power consumption trajectories, and it is less difficult. Currently, the more use of the counter measures is the power balance. In this paper, we use the quantum annealing algorithm to optimize the anti power consumption attacks based on WDDL and reduce unnecessary additional units. Compared with ExCCel optimization algorithm based on the traditional simulated annealing algorithm, quantum annealing algorithm can obtain the optimal solution with a higher probability. The analysis shows that the method can save the circuit area and power consumption to a large extent, and improves the system's ability to resist differential power consumption.
