Concurrent fault detection for hardware implementations of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) may provide protection against random faults, and against an attacker who may maliciously inject faults in order to find the encryption secret key. We have recently developed such a scheme which is based on the parity code. In this paper we prove that the parity-based code detects all odd-order faults and allows the location of most single transient and permanent faults.

Abstract

Concurrent fault detection for hardware implementations of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) may provide protection against random faults, and against an attacker who may maliciously inject faults in order to find the encryption secret key. We have recently developed such a scheme which is based on the parity code. In this paper we prove that the parity-based code detects all odd-order faults and allows the location of most single transient and permanent faults.
