Encoded lookup tables used in white-box cryptography are known to be vulnerable to power analysis due to the imbalanced encoding. This means that the countermeasures against white-box attacks can not even defend against gray-box attacks. For this reason, those who want to defend against power analysis through the white-box cryptographic implementation need to find other ways. In this paper, we propose a method to defend power analysis without resolving the problematic encoding problem. Compared with the existing white-box cryptography techniques, the proposed method has twice the size of the lookup table and nearly the same amount of computation.

This means that the countermeasures against white-box attacks can not even defend against gray-box attacks. For this reason, those who want to defend against power analysis through the white-box cryptographic implementation need to find other ways. In this paper, we propose a method to defend power analysis without resolving the problematic encoding problem.
