Implementing Homomorphic Encryption-Based Logic Locking in System-on-Chip Designs

This study presents a logic locking scheme based on the binary Ring Learning With Errors algorithm, implemented in a RISC-V System-on-Chip design. Unlike traditional logic locking methods that require providing users with raw locking parameters, the proposed approach secures critical logic paths in the privilege switching process without exposing these sensitive parameters. The implemented lock…
