FDTC 2018 – Fifteenth Workshop on Fault Diagnosis and Tolerance in Cryptography 13 September 2018, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (co-located with CHES 2018) FDTC 2018 is held in cooperation with IACR (www.iacr.org). Fault injection is one of the most exploited means for extracting confidential information from embedded devices and for compromising their intended operation. Therefore, research on developing methodologies, techniques, architectures and design tools for robust cryptographic systems (both hardware and software), and on protecting them against both accidental faults and intentional attacks is essential. Of particular interest are models and metrics for quantifying the protection of systems and protocols against malicious injection of faults and to estimate the leaked confidential information. FDTC is the reference event in the field of fault analysis, attacks and countermeasures. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - fault injection and exploitation - mechanisms (e.g., using lasers, electromagnetic induction, or clock / power supply manipulation) - attacks on cryptographic devices (HW and SW) or protocols - combined implementation attacks - countermeasures: - fault resistant hardware / implementations of cryptographic algorithms - countermeasures to detect fault injections - techniques providing fault tolerance (inherent reliability) - fault resistant protocols - measures to prevent fault injection (e.g., physical protection, fault diagnosis) - models and metrics for fault attack analysis - metrics for fault attacks robustness and the leaked information - models of fault injection - modeling and analysis (e.g., modeling the reliability of systems or protocols) - fault attack resistant architectures - fault attack resistant processor designs - fault attack resistant hardware - fault attack resistant software - design tools supporting analysis of fault attacks and countermeasures - early estimation of fault attack robustness - automatic applications of fault countermeasures - fault attacks and reliability - case studies of attacks, fault diagnosis, and tolerance techniques Important dates: Submission deadline: May 25, 2018 Notification of acceptance: June 22, 2018 Camera-ready version: June 29, 2018 Workshop: September 13, 2018 Program chairs: Joan Daemen Radboud University Laurent Sauvage Telecom ParisTech Program committee: Reza Azarderakhsh Florida Atlantic University Josep Balasch KU Leuven Shivam Bhasin NTU Singapore Ileana Buhan Riscure Rosario Cammarota Qualcomm Giorgio Di Natale LIRMM Nahid Farhady Texas Technical University Christophe Giraud Oberthur Technologies Jorge Guajardo Merchan Bosch LLC Sylvain Guilley Telecom ParisTech Jae Cheol Ha Hoseo University Johann Heyszl Fraunhofer Institute Michael Hutter Cryptography Research Juliane Kraemer Technische Universitaet Darmstadt Victor Lomne' LIRMM / University of Montpellier Philippe Maurine University of Montpellier Philippe Loubet Moundi Gemalto Mehran M.

Submissions should be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgments, or obvious references. Papers should be up to 8 pages (including the bibliography and appendices) and must be formatted following the instructions in the provided template. Submission of final papers will be managed directly by Conference Publishing Services (CPS). Conference Publishing Services(CPS) will contact the authors with instructions and will send links for uploading the manuscripts. Accepted papers will be published in an archival proceedings volume by Conference Publishing Services (CPS) and will be distributed at the time of the workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop and present the paper in order to be included in the proceedings.
