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

In this paper, we propose a novel and SAT-resistant logic-locking technique, denoted as Full-
Lock, to obfuscate and protect the hardware against threats including IP-piracy and reverse …

In this paper, we propose a canonical prune-and-SAT (CP&SAT) attack for breaking state-of-
the-art routing-based obfuscation techniques. In the CP&SAT attack, we first encode the key …

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 …

The globalization of the IC supply chain has raised many security threats, especially when
untrusted parties are involved. This has created a demand for a dependable logic …

Logic locking has emerged as a prominent key-driven technique to protect the integrity of
integrated circuits. However, novel machine-learning-based attacks have recently been …

To enable trust in the IC supply chain, logic locking as an IP protection technique received
significant attention in recent years. Over the years, by utilizing Boolean satisfiability (SAT) …

Building and maintaining a silicon foundry is a costly endeavor that requires substantial
financial investment. From this scenario, the semiconductor business has largely shifted to a …

The availability of access to Integrated Circuits' scan chain is an inevitable requirement of
modern ICs for testability/debugging purposes. However, leaving access to the scan chain …
