SCAAML: Side Channel Attacks Assisted with Machine Learning

SCAAML (Side Channel Attacks Assisted with Machine Learning) is a deep learning framework dedicated to side-channel attacks. It is written in python and run on top of TensorFlow 2.x.

Latest Updates

• Sep 2024: GPAM the first power side-channel general model capable of attacking multiple algorithms using full traces, were presented at CHES and are now available for download.

• Sep 2024: ECC datasets our large-scale ECC datasets are available for download.

Available components

• scaaml/: The SCAAML framework code. Its used by the various tools.

• scaaml_intro/: A Hacker Guide To Deep Learning Based Side Channel Attacks. Code, dataset and models used in our step by step tutorial on how to use deep-learning to perform AES side-channel attacks in practice.

• GPAM Generalized Power Attacks against Crypto Hardware using Long-Range Deep Learning model and datasets needed to reproduce our results are available for download.

• ECC datasets A collection of large-scale hardware protected ECC datasets.
