A sensor includes a hollow enclosure, an antenna disposed external to the hollow enclosure and configured to collect emission of electromagnetic energy, a circuit disposed within the hollow enclosure and comprising a low noise amplifier (LNA) connectable to the antenna, and an analog to digital converter (ADC) in a connection with the LNA, circuit connections connecting, during use of the sensor, the circuit to each of the antenna, a source of electric energy and a signal processing component, a connection between the enclosure and an enclosure of an integrated circuit (IC), whereby the antenna id disposed between the sensor and the IC, and the sensor configured to at least measure a low-level electromagnetic energy emitted from the IC.

Ultra-sensitive, ultra-low power RF field sensor

An apparatus for testing, inspecting or screening an electrically powered device for modified or unmodified hardware, firmware or software modifications including Malware, Trojans, adware, improper versioning, worms, or virus and the like, includes an antenna positioned at a distance from the electrically powered device and a signal receiver or sensor for examining a signal from the electrically powered device. The receiver or sensor collects unintended RF energy components emitted by the electrically powered device and includes one or more processors and executable instructions that perform analysis in a response to the acquired signal input while the electrically powered device is active or powered. The characteristics of the collected RF energy may be compared with RF energy characteristics of an unmodified device. The comparison determines one of a modified, unmodified or score of certainty of modified condition of the electrically powered device.

Detection of malicious software, firmware, IP cores and circuitry via unintended emissions

An integrated circuit includes an antenna, a die manufactured from a semiconducting material, an RF energy collection and processing means disposed on or within said die and including at least a receiver and a processing means, an input configured to supply power to said RF energy collection and processing means and an output for operative communication by said RF energy collection and processing means. The integrated circuit is configurable and operable to provide at least one of electromagnetic emission anomaly detection, tamper detection, anti-tamper monitoring, degradation monitoring, health monitoring, counterfeit detection, software changes monitoring, firmware changes monitoring and monitoring of other RF energy anomalies.

Integrated circuit with electromagnetic energy anomaly detection and processing

An apparatus comprises an antenna pattern precursor, wherein the antenna pattern precursor includes a plurality of sensitive regions; and electromagnetically functionalized DNA/nanoparticle complex(es) that individualize the ability to transition between the precursor antenna electrical and resonant frequency characteristics, and activated antenna electrical and resonant frequency characteristics through DNA hybridization of the specific sequences contained in the electromagnetically functionalized DNA/nanoparticle complex(es).

A method and apparatus to measure and analyze electromagnetic emissions from implanted electronics to accomplish at least one of: detect and identify an active implant comprising electronics implanted in a biological host, diagnose the health of individual electronics as well as their health as an ensemble, and predict probable degradation of individual electronics, degradation of the electronic ensemble, and of the active implant in an automated fashion. The methods comprise filtering techniques to extract the information about the active implant's electronics by filtering out relevant biological effects induced by the active implant's biological situation. Said detection, identification, diagnosis, and prognosis are based on the measurement of intentional and unintentional electromagnetic emissions that emanate from the implant electronics of the active implant in a given biological situation.
