| pw_crypto threat model |
| ====================== |
| This document supplements the |
| :ref:`general threat model <docs-security-threat_model>` to provide a threat |
| model specific to pw_crypto. |
| |
| ----- |
| Scope |
| ----- |
| * For ``pw_crypto`` (which acts as a thin wrapper), implementation bugs that |
| *introduce* new side-channel attacks are in-scope, though side-channel |
| resistance of the underlying cryptographic algorithms is delegated to the |
| configured backend (e.g., Mbed TLS). |
