Differential faultanalysis is a type of side channel attack in the field of cryptography , specifically cryptanalysis . The principle is to induce faults unexpected environmental conditions into cryptographic implementations, to reveal their internal states. For example, a smartcard containing an embedded secure cryptoprocessor processor might be subjected to high temperature, unsupported power supply supply voltage or current , excessively high overclocking , strong electric field electric or magnetic field s, or even ionizing radiation to influence the operation of the processor. The processor may begin to output incorrect results due to physical data corruption , which may help a cryptanalyst deduce the instructions that the processor is running, or what its internal data state is. ref Eli Biham, Adi Shamir The next Stage of Differential FaultAnalysis How to break completely unknown cryptosystems 1996 ref ref Dan Boneh and Richard A.

analysis of spread spectrum time domain reflectometry for wire fault location Analysis of Spread Spectrum Time Domain Reflectometry for Wire Fault Location in IEEE Sensors Journal Dec 2005 . ref References Reflist See also Arc fault circuit interrupter Time domain reflectometer Category Articles ...An arc fault is a high power discharge of electricity between two or more conductors. This discharge translates into heat, which can break down the wire s insulation and possibly trigger an electrical fire. These arc faults can range in power from a few amps up to thousands of amps high and are highly variable in terms of strength and duration. Common causes of arc faults include faulty connections due to corrosion and faulty initial installation. Location and detection Two types of wiring protection are standard thermal breakers and arc fault circuit breakers. The wire damage from thermal breakers are easier to find and repair, but is also very costly. The damage from an arc fault circuit breaker incurs less damage, even to the point where the wire can still be operational, but it is much more difficult to find. On top of this, the sensitivity of the arc fault circuit breaker, which allows it to detect arc faults can also produce false positives, which ascribe normal circuit behaviors as arc faults. For instance, lightning strikes on the outside of an aircraft mimic arc faults in their voltage and current profiles. Research has been able to largely eliminate such false positives, however, providing the ability to quickly identify and locate repairs that need to be done. ref Stephenson, James, Ph.D. http livewiretest.com eliminating false positives in the detection and location of sub 3ms faults on acdc lines Eliminating False Positives in the Detection and Location of sub 3ms Faults on AC DC Lines presented at the 2011 Aircraft Airworthiness & Sustainment Conference on April 19, 2011. ref In simple wiring systems visual inspection can lead to finding the fault location, but in complex ... more details
