Attacks and countermeasures on AES and ECC
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is widely used in LTE and Wi-Fi communication systems. AES has recently been exposed to new attacks which have questioned the overall security of AES. The newest attack is a so called biclique attack, which is using the fact that the content of the state array is foreseeable while the rounds are performed.
ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) is used as a public key crypto system with the key purpose of creating a private shared between two participants in a communication network. Attacks on ECC include the Pohlig-Hellman attack and the Pollard's rho attack. Furthermore side-channels attacks can be applied to ECC.
This paper reflects an ongoing research in the field of countermeasures against the attacks mentioned above.
