Make Sure DSA Signing Exponentiations Really Are Constant-Time

Explore a critical security presentation from the 23rd ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS 2016) that delves into the importance of constant-time DSA signing exponentiations. Learn from authors Cesar Pereida Garcia, Billy Bob Brumley, and Yuval Yarom as they discuss their research findings and implications for cryptographic implementations. Gain insights into potential vulnerabilities in DSA signing processes and understand the significance of ensuring truly constant-time operations to prevent side-channel attacks. This 25-minute talk, presented at the prestigious Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria, offers valuable knowledge for cryptography experts, security researchers, and software developers working with digital signature algorithms.
