  • Fault-to-time converter sensor for low-overhead fault injection attack mitigation
    Patent number: 12675610
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide fault injection attack mitigation for an integrated circuit. In one example, an embodiment provides for providing a sampling clock signal to both high voltage threshold (HVT) cells and low voltage threshold (LVT) cells of a fault-to-time converter sensor of an integrated circuit, providing output of the HVT cells and the LVT cells to an encoder stage of the fault-to-time converter sensor, and detecting one or more fault injection attacks with respect to the integrated circuit based on output of the encoder stage.

  • ADAPTIVE AND DESIGN-AGNOSTIC ACTIVE WATERMARKING FOR AUTHENTICATION OF HARDWARE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (IP) CORE OWNERSHIP
    Publication number: 20250335569
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide adaptive and design-agnostic active watermarking for authentication of a circuit. In one example, an embodiment provides for transmitting a challenge prompt to respective peripherals of an integrated circuit, receiving a peripheral response from the respective peripherals in response to the challenge prompt, and authenticating one or more functionalities of the integrated circuit based on the peripheral response from the respective peripherals.
