Secure Vlsi Hardware Design Against Intellectual Property (Ip) Theft And Cryptographic Vulnerabilities, Matthew Dean Lewandowski
Secure Vlsi Hardware Design Against Intellectual Property (Ip) Theft And Cryptographic Vulnerabilities, Matthew Dean Lewandowski
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Over the last two decades or so, VLSI hardware is increasingly subject to sophisticated attacks on both the supply chain and design fronts. There is no explicit trust that the manufacturers/providers are not producing counterfeit designs or that cryptographic algorithms we know to be secure in software are also secure in hardware. The novelty and key contributions of this work are as follows: 1) a continually refined method for Intellectual Property (IP) Protection that provides an approach for verification of IP ownership, 2) demonstrate how to break the PRESENT-80 cryptographic algorithm with significantly limited resources, and 3) provide a multitude …
