Abstract
A method of evaluating a cryptosystem to determine whether the cryptosystem can withstand a fault analysis attack, the method includes the steps of providing a cryptosystem having an encrypting process to encrypt a plaintext into a ciphertext, introducing a fault into the encrypting process to generate a ciphertext with faults, and comparing the ciphertext with the ciphertext with faults in an attempt to recover a key of the cryptosystem.
