Analysis Workbench

DPAWS device interface and data collection environment

Performs interactive and scripted data acquisition and analysis, controls I/O and data transfers for A/D trace capture, protocol emulation for interaction with device under test, logging for extended data collection.

Signal processing

Tools for data alignment, filtering, clock cycle compression, trace pre-processing, and high-order analysis.

Hypothesis generation

Sort data based on predictions for AES, DES, RSA, ECC, and multiplication primitives.

Optimized DPA analysis utilities

Efficiently perform DPA tests on large data sets.

Analysis tools

• Automated analysis tools for finding maximum variance of differential traces.
• Waveform visualization tool to quickly evaluate power traces and analysis results across multiple trace files.
