Thesis type MASTER THESIS
Description Gaming and Gamification are getting an increasing usage in Security training and education.
In particular, Challenges and Capture-the-Flag are more and more exploited in both Read-Teaming and Blue-Teaming.
When dealing with Hardware security, very often we have to "reverse" a hardware design, starting from structural and/or behavioural descriptions at different abstraction levels.
The purpose of the thesis is to extensively exploit several EDA (Electronic Design Automation) environments, like Yosys and Atalanta, for (i) reversing and analysing digital circuits, (ii) detecting the presence of hardware Trojans.
The thesis activities will be carried out in collaboration with researchers of:
- CINI Cybersecurity National Laboratory (https://cybersecnatlab.it)
- Faculty of Engineering of the University of Tehran
- Blu5® Labs Ltd (Malta)

The topic is so huge that several students can be involved in the activities.
