Motivated by the development of Side-Channel Analysis (SCA) countermeasures which can provide security up to a certain order, defeating higher-order attacks has become amongst the most challenging issues. For instance, Threshold Implementation (TI) which nicely solves the problem of glitches in masked hardware designs is able to avoid first-order leakages. Hence, its extension to higher orders aims at counteracting SCA attacks at higher orders, that might be limited to univariate scenarios. Although with respect to the number of traces as well as sensitivity to noise the higher the order, the harder it is to mount the attack, a d-order TI design is vulnerable to an attack at order \(d+1\).
