The SAT attack has shown to be efficient against most combinational logic encryption
methods. It can be extended to attack sequential logic encryption techniques by leveraging …

Obfuscation or Logic locking (LL) is a technique for protecting hardware intellectual property
(IP) blocks against diverse threats, including IP theft, reverse engineering, and malicious …

The Boolean satisfiability (SAT) attack is an oracle-guided attack that can break most
combinational logic locking schemes by efficiently pruning out all the wrong keys from the …

The security of hardware intellectual properties (IPs) has become a significant concern, as
the opportunity for piracy, reverse engineering, and malicious modification is increasing …

Research in logic encryption over the last decade has resulted in various techniques to
prevent different security threats such as Trojan insertion, intellectual property leakage, and …

Logic locking and Integrated Circuit (IC) camouflaging are the most prevalent protection
schemes that can thwart most hardware security threats. However, the state-of-the-art …

Machine learning based malware detection techniques rely on grayscale images of malware
and tends to classify malware based on the distribution of textures in graycale images. Albeit …

We propose SANSCrypt, a novel sequential logic encryption scheme to protect integrated
circuits against reverse engineering. Previous sequential encryption methods focus on …

Sequential logic encryption is a countermeasure against reverse engineering of sequential
circuits based on modifying the original finite state machine of the circuit such that the circuit …

The increasing cost of manufacturing the complex Integrated Circuits (ICs) and ever-rising
competition to shorten time-to-market have given rise to the trend of fabless manufacturing …
