Abstract
A method for securing an integrated circuit chip includes obtaining a first value from a first storage area in the chip, obtaining a second value from a second storage area in the chip, generating a third value based on the first value and the second value, and converting a first opcode command obfuscated as a second opcode command into a non-obfuscated form of the first opcode command based on the third value. The first value corresponds to a physically unclonable function (PUF) of the chip. The second value is a key including information indicating a type of obfuscation performed to obfuscate the first opcode command as the second opcode command. The third value may be an inversion flag indicating a type of obfuscation performed to obfuscate the first opcode command as the second opcode command.
