RESAA: A Removal and Structural Analysis Attack Against Compound Logic Locking
Felipe Almeida, Levent Aksoy, Samuel Pagliarini
The semiconductor industry's paradigm shift towards fabless integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing has introduced security threats, including piracy, counterfeiting, hardware Trojan…
Hybrid Protection of Digital FIR Filters
Levent Aksoy, Quang-Linh Nguyen, Felipe Almeida +4
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…
Resynthesis-based Attacks Against Logic Locking
F. Almeida, L. Aksoy, Q-L. Nguyen +3
Logic locking has been a promising solution to many hardware security threats, such as intellectual property infringement and overproduction. Due to the increased attention that th…
Design Space Exploration of SABER in 65nm ASIC
Malik Imran, Felipe Almeida, Jaan Raik +3
This paper presents a design space exploration for SABER, one of the finalists in NIST's quantum-resistant public-key cryptographic standardization effort. Our design space explora…
High-level Intellectual Property Obfuscation via Decoy Constants
Levent Aksoy, Quang-Linh Nguyen, Felipe Almeida +4
This paper presents a high-level circuit obfuscation technique to prevent the theft of intellectual property (IP) of integrated circuits. In particular, our technique protects a cl…
Side-Channel Attacks on Triple Modular Redundancy Schemes
Felipe Almeida, Levent Aksoy, Jaan Raik +1
The interplay between security and reliability is poorly understood. This paper shows how triple modular redundancy affects a side-channel attack (SCA). Our counterintuitive findin…
