Power analysis-based Hardware Trojan detection

Hao Xue, Shuo Li, Saiyu Ren · 2017

Outsourcing of chip product chain makes hardware vulnerable to being attacked. For example, an attacker who has access to hardware fabrication process can alter the genuine hardware with the insertion of concealed hardware elements (Hardware Trojan). Therefore, microelectronic circuit Hardware Trojan detection becomes a key step of chip production. A power analysis-based power-analysis microelectronic circuit Hardware Trojan detection methodology is proposed in this paper. The detection method is implemented in 90nm CMOS process. Based on simulation results, our proposed technique can detect Hardware Trojans with areas that are 0.013% of the host-circuitry.
