 ABSTRACT  = {
	We present a new type of fault attacks on elliptic curve scalar multiplications:
	Sign Change Attacks. These attacks exploit different number representations 
	as they are often employed in modern cryptographic applications. Previously,
	fault attacks on elliptic curves aimed to force a device to output points which
	are on a cryptographically weak curve. Such attacks can easily be defended
	against. Our attack produces points which do not leave the curve and are not
	easily detected. The paper also presents a revised scalar multiplication algorithm 
	that protects against Sign Change Attacks.},
