ARMOR: First-Order Masking of Activation and ArgMax Gadgets for Side-Channel Resistant Neural Networks
CHES 2026, To appear.
Cryptographic Implementation Security Researcher
I am a Ph.D. candidate at Korea University, advised by Prof. HeeSeok Kim. My research focuses on physical attacks and countermeasures for cryptographic implementations, especially side-channel analysis, fault injection attacks, and post-quantum cryptography.
Research Interests
Physical Attacks
Side-channel analysis and fault injection attacks against cryptographic implementations.
Fault Attacks
Security evaluation of lattice-based digital signatures(ML-DSA and HAETAE).
Countermeasures
Design and evaluation of implementation-level protections for software and hardware.
News
2026
ARMOR has been accepted at CHES 2026.
2025
Working on fault injection attacks targeting ML-DSA and HAETAE.
Selected Publications
Projects
Fault Attacks on PQC Signatures
Investigating how fault injection can affect challenge generation, randomness sampling, and signing procedures in lattice-based digital signature schemes.
Side-Channel Evaluation Framework
Developing practical tools for trace acquisition, SNR analysis, CPA, and leakage assessment on embedded cryptographic implementations.
