Hardware IP Protection through Provably Secure State Space Obfuscation

Abstract

This program seeks to modify the state transition function of a design: (a) expand number of reachable states through superimposition of cellular automata; (b) secure key management; (c) secure verification of obfuscated Ips. The proposed state-space methodology and metrics will be designed for all types of sequential designs used by DoD and validated through test chip fabrication and measurements.
