Abstract(in English) Recently, digital ICs are designed by outside vendors to reduce costs in semiconductor industry. This circumstance introduces risks that malicious attackers can implement Hardware Trojans (HTs) on them. In this paper, we propose an HT identification method for gate-level netlists without using a Golden netlist. Firstly, we extract several their features specific to Trojan nets using several HT-inserted benchmarks. Secondly, we give scores to Trojan net features and sum up them for each net in benchmarks. Then we can find out a score threshold to identify HTs. Experimental results demonstrate that our method successfully identify all the HT-inserted gate-level benchmarks to be HT-inserted and all the HT-free gate-level benchmarks to be HT-free in approximately three hours for each benchmark.
