In the 1970s researchers noticed that radioactive particles produced by elements naturally present in packaging material could cause bits to flip in sensitive areas of electronic chips. Research into the effect of cosmic rays on semiconductors, an area of particular interest in the aerospace industry, led to methods of hardening electronic devices designed for harsh environments. Ultimately various mechanisms for fault creation and propagation were discovered, and in particular it was noted that many cryptographic algorithms succumb to so-called fault attacks. Preventing fault attacks...

The emergence of a few powerful individuals in control of large sections of mass communication industries has coincided with world-wide media de-regulation. In the first book to take a close look at media moguls as a species, Jeremy Tunstall and Michael Palmer show how a handful of own-and-operate entrepreneurs run their empires with a highly eccentric and highly political management style.
Individuals such as Berlusconi, Hersant, and Murdoch, in France, Germany, Italy, Britain and the US, are considered in the context of the changing European media industry. The book considers other,...

Fault attacks is an active area of research in cryptography, currently explored in hundreds of research papers and dedicated conferences. This book is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject covering both the theory and practice of these attacks as well as defense techniques. ... Preventing fault attacks without sacrificing performance is nontrivial. Over the years a number of innovative ideas have been proposed for efficiently verifying cryptographic computations. Many defense strategies are described in the book, some of which are already deployed in real-world cryptographic...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Security Aspects in Information Technology, High-Performance Computing and Networking held in Haldia, India, in October 2011. The 14 full papers presented together with the abstracts of two invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. The papers address all current aspects in cryptography, security aspects in high performance computing and in networks as well. The papers are divided in topical sections on embedded security; digital rights management; cryptographic protocols;...
