Who we are
The Centre for Hardware Security is a research group started by professor Samuel Pagliarini (webpage).
From late 2019 to early 2024, the Centre and its researchers obtained multiple national and international awards, published dozens of papers in high-quality venues, and fabricated numerous chips.
What we do
The Centre for Hardware Security conducts research in all applied aspects of hardware security: the aim is to validate security techniques in real silicon. The Centre's research on integrated circuit (IC) design, electronic design automation (EDA), and cryptographic hardware enables trustworthy IC-based systems to be built. Threats such as hardware Trojans, reverse engineering, circuit (de)obfuscation, IP piracy, IC overbuilding, side-channel attacks, etc., are addressed through an array of technical countermeasures. A portfolio of the chips designed at the Centre is available here.
