Abstract
Due to the evolution in the Integrated Circuit (IC) supply chain, soft/firm/hard cores involved in a system under development and manufactured ICs come from numerous, and possibly unreliable, sources. This loss of control over the entire design/production flow leads to several threats including the insertion by an attacker of malicious circuitries known as Hardware Trojans. Hardware Trojan insertion modifies the functionality of the circuit, possibly its reliability, in order to alter its behavior, generate a denial of service or leak secret information for instance. Numerous methods have been proposed in the literature to detect the presence of such alterations, or prevent their insertion. This paper focuses on methods based on logic testing. Researches in this domain are surveyed and remaining unresolved challenges are described along with proposals to meet these challenges.
