    Abstract: A cryptographic bus architecture prevents usage of side channel information by Differential Power Attacks (DPA) by randomly toggling the polarity of an encrypted bit at a data bus driver. The bus architecture comprises bi-directional drivers 315, 317 connected by a bus 316. An N-bit random number generator 313 has N outputs 314, wherein each output comprises one bit. The value of each random bit is used to toggle a driver, i.e. change its polarity, and drive the internal bus so as to defeat correlation. The chance of having a "0" or "1" will be approximately 0.5 due to the randomization of the polarity. Preferably the polarity control line is probe-resistant. The bus may have dual rails for parallel transmission of each bit, with one rail being inverted compared to the other rail to mask power consumption (fig. 14). Other embodiments are disclosed for preventing information leakage attacks that utilise timeline alignment, including inserting a random number of instructions into an encryption algorithm such that the leaked information cannot be aligned in time to allow attacker to break the encryption.

    Abstract: A multilayered integrated circuit and a method of designing a multilayered integrated circuit are provided. The circuit comprises at least two conductive layers and extraneous conductive lines placed in the conductive layers. The extraneous conductive lines are made of a material which is the same as the material in the conductive layers and have dimensions which are the same as the dimension of the material in the conductive layers. The extraneous conductive lines perform functions which are unnecessary to the operation of the integrated circuit and are undistinguishable from the functional conductive lines, thus burdening the work of a reverse engineer. The method of designing the multilayered circuit comprises a step of providing a computer generated representation of the extraneous conductive lines.

    Abstract: A technique for and structures for camouflaging an integrated circuit structure and strengthen its resistance to reverse engineering. A plurality of transistors are formed in a semiconductor substrate, at least some of the transistors being of the type having sidewall spacers with LDD regions formed under the sidewall spacers. Transistors are programmably interconnected with ambiguous interconnection features, the ambiguous interconnection features each comprising a channel formed in the semiconductor substrate with preferably the same dopant density as the LDD regions, with selected ones of the channels being formed of a conductivity type supporting electrical communication between interconnected active regions and with other selected ones of the channels being formed of a conductivity type inhibiting electrical communication but ambiguously appearing to a reverse engineer as supporting electrical communication.
