Popis: Flooding-based Denial-of-service (DoS) attacks have been prevalent in Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures, due to its shared nature and open access to all the on-chip modules. A Malicious Intellectual Property (MIP) within a System-on-Chip (SoC) creates such an attack by flooding the NoC with useless packets resulting in significant bandwidth reduction. Finding the location of an MIP is crucial to restore regular network operations and curtail system performance degradation. In this work, we propose Sniffer, an efficient MIP localization framework which employs a low-overhead machine learning approach to accurately trace the attack path and take a collective decision to locate the MIPs. Experimental results show that Sniffer is able to provide high accuracy for MIP localization without incurring significant overheads.
