The EnSuRe group was recently awarded a research grant through the NSF Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) program to develop formal security analysis tools for integrated circuit (IC) camouflaging.  The research will develop a deeper understanding of the capabilities of IC imaging based reverse engineering attacks and solutions to defend against these pernicious attacks.

The grant is jointly funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC).
