Using a qualitative r
Side-channel monitoring has the potential to offer a non-intrusive way to assess the behavior of an embedded device by monitoring physical signals such as power consumption or electromagnetic emissions by placing a small measuring probe close to the device. Although studies seem to indicate that it is effective in a laboratory environment with monitoring methods adjusted based on the specific targ
