+ Certain non-invasive physical attacks that do not need modifications to the
+ chip, notably those like Power Analysis Attacks, are out-of-scope. Power
+ analysis side-channel attacks represent a category of security threats that
+ capitalize on information leakage through a device's power consumption during
+ its normal operation. These attacks leverage the correlation between a
+ device's power usage and its internal data processing activities. This
+ correlation provides attackers with the means to extract sensitive
+ information, including cryptographic keys.
