 \paragraph{Detailed discussion of contactless attacks.}
 
 Reviewer~C noted that like a traditional HSM an IHSM cannot prevent contactless attacks such as electromagnetic
-sidechannel attacks or laser fault injection. While our initial submission acknowledged this property of our design, our
-original submission did not provide a detailed discussion of its extent. In our revised paper, we have added a new

 \paragraph{Justification of mesh monitor power consumption estimates.}
 
 A point noted by Reviewers~A and~B is that in our initial submission we provided an estimate on the current consumption
