These attacks often take advantage of the physical implementation of a system, rather than flaws in its algorithms or protocols. \#\#\# Types of Side-Channel Information: 1. **Timing Information**: Variations in the time taken to execute cryptographic algorithms based on the input data can reveal secrets.
