Time and place
Course Information
Intended learning outcomes
The aim of this course is to give you an opportunity to get hands on with side channel attacks. We will thus look at their basic principles at first, and then we'll move on to considering how machine learning and deep learning can be used in this specific context.
Teaching methodology including the use of eLearning tools
Pre-recorded videos, slides and lecture notes, interactive slots.
Course content
side channels and how to exploit/detect them, ML/DL as applied to side channels
Prior knowledge expected
You must have a good awareness of the role of cryptography and the challenges of engineering cryptography securely. Our running cipher example will be AES (a vanilla and a "secure implementation").
Thus you should have either attended: Cryptography/Crypto Engineering/Systemsicherheit (BSc) OR Introduction to Cybersecurity (MSc).
Literature
I will provide slides/notes, and we will draw on "Power Analysis Attacks, Revealing the Secrets of Smart Cards) (available in the library).
Examination information
Modified examination information (exceptional COVID-19 provisions)
None.
Examination methodology
You will be graded based on your project work that runs across the entire winter term. The precise grading scheme will be visible on the Moodle page.
Examination topic(s)
All content that we covered.
Assessment criteria / Standards of assessment for examinations
Your grade will be solely based on the project work (the submission requirements and marking schemes will be visible on Moodle).
