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.

光学探测可以实现非接触式提取集成纳米电路中的秘密信息，并已成功应用于多个安全电路中。尽管这种被动攻击具有严重的影响，但到目前为止还没有部署相关的对策。该项目位于区域1（纳米电子安全）和跨学科小组IG3（抗物理攻击的弹性），旨在研究能够保护未来集成纳米电路免受光学探测攻击的方法。为此，应推导出用于探索集成器件几何特性与其对光学探测攻击敏感性之间关系的技术模型。与此同时，应该研究如何选择逻辑风格和设计方法可以作为对抗这种被动攻击的对策。此外，应根据其威胁潜力开发和评估新型类似光学攻击。最后，几个测试结构和其硬化的对应物应集成在一个物理电路和广泛的测试。
