4 Bull in a Porcelain Shop: Introducing Fault Injection
Fault injection is the art and science of circumventing security mechanisms by causing small hardware corruptions during the execution of normal device functions. Fault injection is potentially more of a risk to system security than side-channel analysis. Whereas side-channel analysis targets cryptographic keys, with fault injection, you can attack various other security mechanisms, such as Secure Boot, which besides enabling full system control may enable dumping keys directly from memory without the complexities of side-channel analysis.
Fault injection is all about running hardware ...
