This book provides an overview of current hardware security problems and highlights how these issues can be efficiently addressed using computer-aided design (CAD) tools. Authors are from CAD developers, IP developers, SOC designers as well as SoC verification experts. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of SoC security vulnerabilities and how to overcome them, through an efficient combination of proactive countermeasures and a wide variety of CAD solutions.

This book demonstrates the breadth and depth of IP protection through logic locking, considering both attacker/adversary and defender/designer perspectives. The authors draw a semi-chronological picture of the evolution of logic locking during the last decade, gathering and describing all the DO’s and DON’Ts in this approach. They describe simple-to-follow scenarios and guide readers to navigate/identify threat models and design/evaluation flow for further studies. Readers will gain a comp...

This book provides readers with a comprehensive introduction to physical inspection-based approaches for electronics security. The authors explain the principles of physical inspection techniques including invasive, non-invasive and semi-invasive approaches and how they can be used for hardware assurance, from IC to PCB level. Coverage includes a wide variety of topics, from failure analysis and imaging, to testing, machine learning and automation, reverse engineering and attacks, and coun...

This timely and exhaustive study offers a much-needed examination of the scope and consequences of the electronic counterfeit trade. The authors describe a variety of shortcomings and vulnerabilities in the electronic component supply chain, which can result in counterfeit integrated circuits (ICs). Not only does this book provide an assessment of the current counterfeiting problems facing both the public and private sectors, it also offers practical, real-world solutions for combatting th...

This book introduces readers to various threats faced during design and fabrication by today’s integrated circuits (ICs) and systems. The authors discuss key issues, including illegal manufacturing of ICs or “IC Overproduction,” insertion of malicious circuits, referred as “Hardware Trojans”, which cause in-field chip/system malfunction, and reverse engineering and piracy of hardware intellectual property (IP). The authors provide a timely discussion of these threats, along with techniques...

This book, for the first time, provides comprehensive coverage on malicious modification of electronic hardware, also known as, hardware Trojan attacks, highlighting the evolution of the threat, different attack modalities, the challenges, and diverse array of defense approaches. It debunks the myths associated with hardware Trojan attacks and presents practical attack space in the scope of current business models and practices. It covers the threat of hardware Trojan attacks for all attac...
