Garbled EDA: Privacy Preserving Electronic Design Automation. (arXiv:2208.03822v1 [cs.CR])

The complexity of modern integrated circuits (ICs) necessitates collaboration
between multiple distrusting parties, including thirdparty intellectual
property (3PIP) vendors, design houses, CAD/EDA tool vendors, and foundries,
which jeopardizes confidentiality and integrity of each party's IP. IP
protection standards and the existing techniques proposed by researchers are ad
hoc and vulnerable to numerous structural, functional, and/or side-channel
attacks. Our framework, Garbled EDA, proposes an alternative direction through
formulating the problem in a secure multi-party computation setting, where the
privacy of IPs, …
