Logic locking/obfuscation has emerged as an auspicious solution for protecting the
semiconductor intellectual property (IP) from the untrusted entities in the design and …

Logic locking is a prominent technique to protect the integrity of hardware designs
throughout the integrated circuit design and fabrication flow. However, in recent years, the …

In today's Integrated Circuit (IC) production chains, a designer's valuable Intellectual
Property (IP) is transparent to diverse stakeholders and thus inevitably prone to piracy. To …

Obfuscation is a promising solution for securing hardware intellectual property (IP) against
various attacks, such as reverse engineering, piracy, and tampering. Due to the lack of …

In this paper we present the first generation of a secure platform developed by following a
security-by-design approach. The security of the platform is built on top of two pillars: a …

Malicious circuit modifications known as hardware Trojans represent a rising threat to the
integrated circuit supply chain. As many Trojans are activated based on a specific sequence …

With the modern semiconductor supply chain, the ownership of both intellectual property (IP)
and integrated circuit (IC) cannot be guaranteed. The IP piracy may take place at the …

A digital finite impulse response (FIR) filter is a ubiquitous block in digital signal processing
applications and its behavior is determined by its coefficients. To protect filter coefficients …

With the advent of 5G and IoT applications, there is a greater thrust in terms of hardware
security due to imminent risks caused by high amount of intercommunication between …

Counterfeit integrated circuits (IC) are illegitimate parts that can cause financial loss and
early systems failure. In safety-critical systems, early failure may have life-threatening …
