Abstract
Fault attacks described in cryptographic papers mostly apply to cryptographic algorithms' yet such attacks may have an impact on the whole system in a smart card. In this paper' we describe what can be achieved nowadays by using fault attacks in a smart card environment. After studying several ways of inducing faults' we describe attacks on the most popular cryptosystems and we discuss the problem of induced perturbations in the smart card environment. Finally we discuss how to find appropriate software countermeasures. © 2004 Springer Science + Business Media, Inc.
