This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2005, held in Edinburgh, UK in August/September 2005. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 108 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on side channels, arithmetic for cryptanalysis, low resources, special purpose hardware, hardware attacks and countermeasures, arithmetic for cryptography, trusted computing, and efficient hardware.

These are the proceedings of CHES 2004, the 6th Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems. For the first time, the CHES Workshop was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). This year, the number of submissions reached a new record. One hundred and twenty-five papers were submitted, of which 32 were selected for presentation. Each submitted paper was reviewed by at least 3 members of the program committee. We are very grateful to the program committee for their hard and efficient work in assembling the program. We are also grateful to the 108 external referees who helped in the review process in their area of expertise. In addition to the submitted contributions, the program included three - invited talks, by Neil Gershenfeld (Center for Bits and Atoms, MIT) about "Physical Information Security", by Isaac Chuang (Medialab, MIT) about "Quantum Cryptography", and by Paul Kocher (Cryptography Research) about "Phy- cal Attacks". It also included a rump session, chaired by Christof Paar, which featured informal talks on recent results. As in the previous years, the workshop focused on all aspects of cryptographic hardware and embedded system security. We sincerely hope that the CHES Workshop series will remain a premium forum for intellectual exchange in this area

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2004, held in Cambridge, MA, USA in August 2004. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on side channels, modular multiplication, low resources, implementation aspects, collision attacks, fault attacks, hardware implementation, and authentication and signatures.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2006, held in Yokohama, Japan in October 2006. The 32 revised full papers presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2012, held in Leuven, Belgium, in September 2012. The 32 papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 120 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: intrusive attacks and countermeasures; masking; improved fault attacks and side channel analysis; leakage resiliency and security analysis; physically unclonable functions; efficient implementations; lightweight cryptography; we still love RSA; and hardware implementations.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2007. The 31 revised full papers cover side channels, low resources, hardware attacks and countermeasures, special purpose hardware, efficient algorithms for embedded processors, efficient hardware, trusted computing.

CHES 2009, the 11th workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, was held in Lausanne, Switzerland, September 6–9, 2009. The wo- shop was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). The workshop attracted a record number of 148 submissions from 29 co- tries, of which the Program Committee selected 29 for publication in the wo- shop proceedings, resulting in an acceptance rate of 19.6%, the lowest in the history of CHES. The review process followed strict standards: each paper - ceived at least four reviews, and some asmanyaseightreviews.Membersofthe Program Committee were restricted to co-authoring at most two submissions, and their papers were evaluated by an extended number of reviewers. The ProgramCommittee included 53 members representing 20 countries and ?ve continents. These members were carefully selected to represent academia, industry, and government, as well as to include world-class experts in various research ?elds of interest to CHES. The Program Committee was supported by 148 external reviewers. The total number of people contributing to the - view process, including Program Committee members, external reviewers, and Program Co-chairs, exceeded 200. The papers collected in this volume represent cutting-edge worldwide - search in the rapidly growing and evolving area of cryptographic engineering.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, CHES 2017, held in Taipei, Taiwan, in September 2017. The 33 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 130 submissions. The annual CHES conference highlights new results in the design and analysis of cryptographic hardware and soft- ware implementations. The workshop builds a valuable bridge between the research and cryptographic engineering communities and attracts participants from industry, academia, and government organizations.
