Researchers managed to attack MCUs commonly used in IoT devices, but this would work with any code with secret-dependent control flow, chip designer says Chip designer Arm has said that a successful ...

A side-channel attack monitors indirect signals, like power consumption, electromagnetic radiation, or timing, to steal cryptographic keys and other secrets. While they usually target hardware – ...

The big picture: Side-channel attacks are designed to exploit specific types of information leaked by hardware devices, allowing attackers to gain unauthorized access to sensitive or secret data.
