Abstract:

Asynchronous circuits have several advantages for security applications, in particular their good resistance to attacks. In this paper, we report on experiments with modeling, at various abstraction levels, a patented asynchronous circuit for detecting physical attacks, such as cutting wires or producing short-circuits.
