| In the framework of the SCS cluster and thanks to the impulse of the CIMPACA project, the Ecole des Mines de Saint-Etienne located in the Centre of Microelectronics of Provence-Georges Charpak (ENSMSE-SGC) at Gardanne (Bouches du Rhône) has created a laboratory dedicated to the characterization of the security of integrated circuits. The equipments of the lab enable to prepare the component (by thinning down the substract of deposing an anti-reflective coating), to stress it electrically or with a laser beam and to measure its power consumption or its electromagnetic radiation. Dedicated servers and software tools are also proposed in order to extract information about the sensitive information from the experimental results. The lab is available for academic or industrial partners according to the rules of the CIMPACA/Micropacks’ association. With this lab, unique in France, - the industrials are able to quickly characterize the security of their products and, if necessary, improve them before the certification process, - small and medium enterprises have access to high end equipment at the lowest cost, - academics are able to improve their knowledge on security by, for example, comparing the countermeasures that they propose in the same conditions of test. The lab is also already used for training in security courses. The proposed talk will present the lab more precisely and will describe why it could be a vector to federate the research on the security of integrated circuits. |
