BoMaNet: Boolean Masking of an Entire Neural Network

This paper proposes the hardware design and implementation of a neural network classifier resistant to power-based side-channel attacks using gate-level Boolean masking.

MaskedNet: The First Hardware Inference Engine Aiming Power Side-Channel Protection

This paper demonstrates successful Differential Power Analysis (DPA) attacks on an FPGA-based binarized neural network classifier to extract the weights and biases. It also proposes effective masking and hiding-based countermeasures to thwart such attacks.
