Michael Tunstall

Michael Tunstall has been working in embedded security since 1998, primarily focused on side channel and fault analysis of cryptographic devices. He started his career in Gemplus Card international, the world’s leading smart card maker, and was involved in the development of side channel attacks and countermeasures, from the moment, it was introduced to the cryptographic community as a very real security issue. He is also responsible for some of the first publications demonstrating that fault analysis of cryptographic devices is possible and that suitable countermeasures are required in all such devices. He has co-edited a book entitled “Fault Analysis in Cryptography”, which is a summary of the state-of-the-art in fault analysis and is the first text book on this topic in the literature.
