Flexible Opensource workBench fOr Side-channel analysis (FOBOS)
The Flexible Opensource workBench fOr Side-channel analysis FOBOS is a platform to perform side-channel analysis (SCA). FOBOS uses commercially avilable boards when possible to reduce the cost of building a working SCA setup. Using FOBOS, power traces can be collected and attacks like Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) can be mounted. Also, scripts to perform leakage assesment are included.
