Preventing simple and differential power analysis attacks

Why wouldn't it be simpler to have some sort of battery or capacitor inside the device, such that the the battery has a constant draw from the external power source and the CPU can have a variable draw on the battery? Shades97 (talk) 22:58, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The link http://www.hackhu.com/ is not only dead but its archive ghost points to something totally different (details about a lawsuit against the cryptanalysts, something like a rubber-hose protection layer for weak encryption). Please fix. Thanks. 45.61.4.155 (talk) 18:17, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

General Audience Clarification - Practical Details

Based on my understanding of this technique, its the type of attack that either requires direct, physical, access to a device/system during the analysis or at some point before it begins. Basically: you need to be able to sit there with a motherboard on a table, with oscilloscope probes attached to traces on a circuit board. Even if there are applications of this type of technique that do not require that type of physical access, if the details of the technique require that the analysis is passive (and therefore do not use/piggyback off the device/system's own communication within a network or to the internet). This article should include at least a SENTENCE of general audience clarification.50.150.93.206 (talk) 21:38, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
