Abstract
Malicious modifications of integrated circuits have emerged as a potent threat to circuit and system security and reliability. In this paper, we present theoretical models of different types of commonly investigated malicious hardware logic to estimate their effect on circuit reliability, specifically those malicious circuit modifications that cause functional failure of circuits (“hardware Trojans”). Simulation results show close match to the theoretically predicted trends.
