Theoretical security of cryptographic systems does not guarantee its security in practice when those systems are implemented in physical devices. In this work we present initial stages of a software tool under development to carry out differential power analysis attacks against smart cards. Once properly configured, the toolbox controls a digital oscilloscope which acquires the power traces during the operation of the device and automatically performs the necessary traces alignment.
