Differential fault analysis
ID: differential-fault-analysis
Differential Fault Analysis (DFA) is a cryptographic attack technique used to exploit vulnerabilities in cryptographic algorithms, particularly block ciphers. It involves intentionally introducing faults into the computation of the cipher during encryption or decryption processes, and then analyzing the differences between the faulty outputs and the correct outputs to retrieve secret information, such as encryption keys.
