Methods And Systems For Preventing Hardware Trojan Insertion

摘要

Provided are methods and systems for preventing hardware Trojan insertion. An example method can comprise determining unused space in an integrated circuit (IC), selecting a plurality of built-in self-authentication (BISA) filler cells based on the determined unused space, and placing the selected plurality of BISA filler cells onto the unused space. The plurality of BISA filler cells can be connected to form a plurality of BISA blocks. The plurality of BISA blocks can correspond to a plurality of signatures. A modification of one or more BISA filler cell can lead to an alteration of one or more signatures.
