A positioning system enables the precise placement of fault injection equipment, such as electromagnetic probes, laser systems, and other targeting hardware, above the device under test. Accurate positioning helps security engineers target specific regions of a device and perform repeatable fault injection evaluations.
Many fault injection attacks depend on influencing a very specific area of a device at exactly the right location. Precise positioning helps improve attack repeatability, reduce setup variability, and increase confidence in evaluation results.
The DS1010A Precision XYZ Stage is used to position fault injection hardware with high accuracy and repeatability. It supports electromagnetic, optical, and other fault injection methodologies that require precise targeting of the device under test
A positioning system helps maintain the same attack location across multiple test runs. This enables engineers to reproduce successful fault conditions, compare results, and validate vulnerabilities more efficiently.
The DS1010A can be used with a variety of fault injection hardware, including:
Electromagnetic fault injection effectiveness can vary significantly depending on probe location. Accurate positioning enables engineers to identify sensitive regions, optimize attack success rates, and reproduce results across multiple evaluations.
Yes. The DS1010A is designed to support both fault injection and side-channel analysis workflows, making it a versatile component of a hardware security testing laboratory.
