Abstract
In the surge of the digital era, the Metaverse, as a groundbreaking
concept, has become a focal point in the technology sector. It is
reshaping human work and life patterns, carving out a new realm of
virtual and real interaction. However, the rapid development of the
Metaverse brings along novel challenges in security and privacy. In this
multifaceted and complex technological environment, data protection is
of paramount importance. The innovative capabilities of high-end devices
and functions in the Metaverse, owing to advanced integrated circuit
technology, face unique threats from Side-Channel Analysis (SCA),
potentially leading to breaches in user privacy. Addressing the issue of
domain differences caused by different hardware devices, which impact
the generalizability of the analysis model and the accuracy of analysis,
this paper proposes a strategy of Portability Power Profiling Analysis
(PPPA). Combining domain adaptation and deep learning techniques, it
models and calibrates the domain differences between the profiling and
target devices, enhancing the model’s adaptability in different device
environments. Experiments show that our method can recover the correct
key with as few as 389 power traces, effectively recovering keys across
different devices. This paper underscores the effectiveness of
cross-device SCA, focusing on the adaptability and robustness of
analysis models in different hardware environments, thereby enhancing
the security of user data privacy in the Metaverse environment.
