Paul Kocher
A grouping.
Reading secrets out of physical and microarchitectural side channels, across twenty-three years: timing attacks on implementations of Diffie-Hellman, RSA and DSS, then differential power analysis, then Meltdown and Spectre applying the same reasoning to speculative execution rather than to cryptography. The records arrived under two spellings, now joined, and the split had a consequence worth knowing: the 1996 timing paper is the one filed as 'Paul C. Kocher', so an exact search for 'Paul Kocher' returned the three modern attacks and not the paper that started them.
