Abstract
First, we provide the necessary mathematical background information on elliptic curves and bilinear pairings. We assume the reader is familiar with abstract algebra and basic probability theory. Next, we present the AES algorithm and introduce Identity-Based Encryption (IBE). The chapter continues with the explanation of side channel attacks and fault attacks. The necessary terminology is presented and related work is discussed.
