Designs implemented on SRAM-based FPGA chips are vulnerable to attacks. When the bitstream containing the design information is transmitted from the external NVM (Non-Volatile Memory) to the chip for configuration of the desired functionality, an attacker can eavesdrop on the bus in between, capture...
