RTL-Breaker: Assessing the Security of LLMs against Backdoor Attacks on HDL Code Generation
Lakshmi Likhitha Mankali, Jitendra Bhandari, Manaar Alam +4
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable potential with code generation/completion tasks for hardware design. In fact, LLM-based hardware description language (HDL…
ASCENT: Amplifying Power Side-Channel Resilience via Learning & Monte-Carlo Tree Search
Jitendra Bhandari, Animesh Basak Chowdhury, Mohammed Nabeel +4
Power side-channel (PSC) analysis is pivotal for securing cryptographic hardware. Prior art focused on securing gate-level netlists obtained as-is from chip design automation, negl…
Lightweight Countermeasures Against Static Power Side-Channel Attacks
Jitendra Bhandari, Mohammed Nabeel, Likhitha Mankali +3
This paper presents a novel defense strategy against static power side-channel attacks (PSCAs), a critical threat to cryptographic security. Our method is based on (1) carefully tu…
