Abstract
This paper analyses a novel countermeasure to Leakage Power Analysis Attacks based on the application of a random Body Bias voltage level at the beginning of the encryption process. The countermeasure effectiveness is established through the development of a theoretical model of the Pearson correlation coefficient in the presence of a varying body bias under both noiseless assumptions and in the presence of algorithmic noise, and through simulations on a partial cryptosystem implemented in 28 nm FDSOI technology. A study of the effect of averaging power measurements is also developed and contrasted against Monte Carlo simulations of the countermeasure scheme, effectively providing a floor for the increase in required measurements to identify the secret key.
