Correlation power analysis (CPA) combined with genetic algorithms (GA) now achieves greater attack efficiency and can recover all subkeys simultaneously. However, two issues in GA-based CPA still need to be addressed: key degeneration and slow evolution within populations. These challenges significantly hinder key recovery efforts. This paper proposes a screening correlation power analysis framework combined with a genetic algorithm, named SFGA-CPA, to address these issues. SFGA-CPA introduces three operations designed to exploit CPA characteristics: propagative operation, constrained crossove...
