Abstract

The selection and widespread usage of the cryptographic algorithm Advanced Encryption Standard by the US Government has made this as the de-facto standard worldwide. This popularity of AES had invited various cryptanalysts to try to break this standard. Though officially it was not broken, many researchers had predicted and in-fact documented methods to prove that it can be broken. One such method is Differential Power Analysis attack which is powerful and expected to give out the secret keys. Here we have given a method using Synchronous communication and asynchronous communication for within the module and between the modules of AES algorithm. This modification acts as a counter-measure and gives improved strength against the power attack.
