Abstract

Limited research has been conducted on SNNs for FPGA Trojan detection. FPGA design is often handled by manufacturers outside the U.S. FPGA manufactures outsource production to third-party foundries. This multi-step process introduces security vulnerabilities and increases risk of Hardware Trojan insertion.

Key Questions: To what extent can an FPGA be manipulated at the bitstream level to enable or disable encryption algorithms?

Can SNNs accurately detect the presence of Trojans within an FPGA?
