GUARD: A Clock and Voltage Glitch Detector With On-Demand Protection

GUARD: A Clock and Voltage Glitch Detector With On-Demand Protection 150 150
Author(s): Mao Li, Sanu K. Mathew, Vivek De, Mingoo Seok

Abstract:

This article presents GUARD, a fully digital, variation-tolerant detector for clock and voltage glitch attacks, featuring an integrated on-demand protection mechanism. Fabricated in 28-nm CMOS, GUARD provides robust security for digital systems by monitoring the system clock for maliciously injected faults. It employs a pair of optimized time-to-digital converters (TDCs) …

A 54- $\\mu$ W Design-Agnostic Clock, Voltage, and EM-Pulse Fault-Injection Attack Detection Using Time-to-Voltage Conversion

A 54- $\\mu$ W Design-Agnostic Clock, Voltage, and EM-Pulse Fault-Injection Attack Detection Using Time-to-Voltage Conversion 150 150
Author(s): Yudhajit Ray, Archisman Ghosh, Sarthak Antal, Shreyas Sen

Abstract:

This article presents a state-of-the-art design-agnostic clock, voltage, and electromagnetic pulse (EMP)-based fault-injection attack (FIA) detector. The efficient conversion of time-to-voltage information by integrating amplifiers transforms the time anomaly into the voltage domain, enabling its detection at a lower power consumption. The clock-glitch detector design consumes only $53~\mu $ W …
