The Security Weakness of Block Cipher Piccolo against Fault Analysis
Piccolo is a 64-bit lightweight block cipher which is able to be implemented in constrained hardware environments such as a wireless sensor network. Fault analysis is a type of side channel attack and cube attack is an algebraic attack finding sufficiently low-degree polynomials in a cipher. In this...

Our attack has the complexity of 2 8.49 and 2 9.21 encryptions with fault injections of target bit positions into Piccolo-80 and Piccolo-128, respectively.
