On demand course: Securing the Silicon Lifecycle: From DfT Outsourcing to Runtime Threat Mitigation

Chip on dark blue circuit board

Design-for-Test (DfT) is essential not only during manufacturing but also throughout an IC’s operational lifetime, for example during repair and maintenance. While high controllability and observability are key objectives of DfT, these capabilities can also introduce security risks, including data-sniffing and data-alteration attacks.

With a focus on DfT, in this course presentation, we will discuss the security risks associated with globally distributed supply chains, approaches for preventing the leakage of sensitive information, and methods for detecting and mitigating malicious activity during IC operation.
