  1. Microprobing attacks poses a serious threat to security-critical applications by enabling attackers to steal assets and/or secrets within integrated circuits (ICs).With the assistance of focused ion beam (FIB), microprobing attacks are even more powerful. Although there are some existing countermeasures like active shields, analog shields, and t-private circuits, the FIB’s capabilities are not taken into consideration and thus these countermeasures are inefficient and only provide limited resistance against the FIB-enhanced microprobing attacks. To counter the attack, we previously proposed a FIB-aware antiprobing physical design flow that utilizes computer-aided design (CAD) tools to detect and prevent microprobing attack from the IC front-side with minimal extra design effort. In this paper, we expand this flow to protect not only front-side of the IC, but provide simultaneous protection of both front-side and back-side. Results in an Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) benchmark show that, by using the proposed flow, the vulnerable area exposed to front-side probing on security-critical nets is reduced to zero at low FIB aspect ratios with less than 2% timing and area overhead.
