BACKDOOR RESEARCH
HARDWARE TROJANS RESEARCH FOR SUPPLY CHAIN SECURIZATION
THE PROBLEM: 
When a chip maker relies on a third-party for the manufacturing of its chips, he needs to verify that security is also guaranteed at this stage. Indeed, Backdoors could potentially be implemented during manufacturing to retain access to debugging facilities offering to an attacker the capacity to easily take control of the device/system integrating the IC. This puts at risk:
When a chip maker relies on a third-party for the manufacturing of its chips, he needs to verify that security is also guaranteed at this stage. Indeed, Backdoors could potentially be implemented during manufacturing to retain access to debugging facilities offering to an attacker the capacity to easily take control of the device/system integrating the IC. This puts at risk:
- Brand & Revenue for the chip maker
- Data confidentiality for the chip marker and its customers
- Security and safety of people, industry and governments
OUR SOLUTION:
- We can compare the genuine GDSII with the one that has been recovered from samples leaving the factory
- If a difference is detected, a deeper investigation can confirm the presence of a backdoor
YOUR BENEFITS:
- Control & Increase of trust at the supply chain level
