Network-on-Chips (NoCs) have been widely used as a scalable communication solution in the design of multiprocessor system-on-chips (MPSoCs). NoCs manage communications between on-chip Intellectual Property (IP) cores and allow processing cores to achieve higher performance by outsourcing their communication tasks. NoC paradigm is based on the idea of resource sharing where hardware resources, including buffers, communication links, routers, etc., are shared between all IPs of the MPSoC. In fact, the data being routed by each NoC router might not be related to the router's local core. Such a utilization-centric design approach can raise security issues in MPSoCs-based designs, e.g., integrity and confidentiality of the data being routed in an NoC might be compromised by unauthorized accesses/modifications of intermediate routers. Many papers in the literature have discovered and addressed security holes of NoCs, aiming at improving the security of the NoC paradigm. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no solid survey study on the security vulnerabilities and countermeasures for NoCs. This paper will review security threats and countermeasures proposed so far for wired NoCs, wireless NoCs, and 3D NoCs. The paper aims at giving the readers an insight into the attacks and weaknesses/strengths of countermeasures.

Diverse and wide-range applications of integrated circuits (ICs) and the development of Cyber Physical System (CPS), more and more third-party manufacturers are involved in the manufacturing of ICs. Unfortunately, like software, hardware can also be subjected to malicious attacks. Untrusted outsourced manufacturing tools and intellectual property (IP) cores may bring enormous risks from highly integrated. Attributed to this manufacturing model, the malicious circuits (known as Hardware Trojans, HTs) can be implanted during the most designing and manufacturing stages of the ICs, causing a change of functionality, leakage of information, even a denial of services (DoS), and so on. In this paper, a survey of HTs is presented, which shows the threatens of chips, and the state-of-the-art preventing and detecting techniques. Starting from the introduction of HT structures, the recent researches in the academic community about HTs is compiled and comprehensive classification of HTs is proposed. The state-of-the-art HT protection techniques with their advantages and disadvantages are further analyzed. Finally, the development trends in hardware security are highlighted.

“…The study has used Poisson process over multiple tier with information about regular and malicious nodes using probability concept. Vashist et al [16] have developed an analytical model for resisting denial-of-service attack along with jamming attack. The solutions for this is presented using correction code with burst error as well as the authors have also deployed a unique classification approach using machine learning.…”

With the increasing adoption of application running over wireless networking system, there is also an increasing security concern in it. Review of existing security protocols in wireless networks shows that they are highly specific to adversaries and hence they cannot be applicable with the dynamic state of network vulnerabilities. Apart from this, it was also explored that public key encryption requires a drastic change in its design methodology in order to make it more resource friendly for increased network lifetime. Therefore, this manuscript presents a novel framework that develops an enhanced model of public key encryption using algebraic structure that can generate an elite secret key. The study also introduces a design of an efficient trapdoor function which renders maximum resiliency towards different forms of lethal attacks as well as adhere to maximum security standards in wireless network. The study outcome shows that proposed system out performs frequently used existing security standards in many aspects.
