This paper considers the classification of hardware trojans in semiconductor chips. The phases of the chip production life-cycle are reviewed and opportunities for trojan insertion are discussed. Trojans are classified using a comprehensive attribute taxonomy based on eight categories. A matrix describing the relationships between these attributes is defined which can be used to identify hardware trojans.
