This project aims to explore and implement advanced logic locking techniques to improve the security of integrated circuits (ICs) against modern attacks. The focus will be on developing a dynamic locking mechanism that periodically reconfigures the key and logic gates during runtime to significantly increase the difficulty of reverse-engineering and key extraction attempts. By introducing unpredictability into the locking mechanism, the project will evaluate the robustness of the system in preventing sophisticated attacks, such as oracle-guided SAT attacks. The outcome of this research will contribute to stronger hardware security solutions for protecting intellectual property in global semiconductor supply chains.
