Optical probing enables the contactless extraction of secret information from integrated nano-circuits and has been successfully applied on several secure circuits. Despite the severe implications of this type of passive attack, no relevant countermeasures are being deployed so far. Positioned in Area 1 (Nano-electronics for security) and the interdisciplinary group IG3 (Resilience against physical attacks) of the matrix of this call, the project at hand aims at investigating methods that enable the protection of future integrated nano-circuits against optical probing attacks. To this end, a technology model for the exploration of the relation between geometrical characteristics of the integrated devices and its susceptibility to optical probing attacks shall be derived. At the same time, it shall be investigated how alternative logic styles and design methodologies can contribute as countermeasures against this kind of passive attack. Furthermore, new kinds of similar optical attacks shall be developed and evaluated in terms of its threat potential. Finally, several test structures and its hardened counterparts shall be integrated in a physical circuit and extensively tested.

光学探测技术能够从集成纳米电路中非接触地提取秘密信息，并已成功地应用于几个安全电路。尽管这类被动攻击具有严重影响，但迄今尚未部署任何相关的反制措施。定位在区域1（纳米电子安全）和跨学科组IG3（抵御物理攻击）的矩阵，手头的项目旨在调查的方法，使未来的集成纳米电路的保护免受光学探测攻击。为此，将导出用于探索集成器件的几何特征与其对光探测攻击的敏感性之间的关系的技术模型。与此同时，应研究替代逻辑风格和设计方法如何有助于对抗这种被动攻击。此外，应开发新的类似光学攻击，并根据其威胁潜力进行评估。最后，应将几个测试结构及其硬化对应物集成到物理电路中并进行广泛测试。
