This paper examines hardware trojan threats to semiconductor chips, which is particularly important for chips intended for vital infrastructure and critical applications. The phases of the chip production life-cycle are considered in terms of the opportunities for trojan insertion. Trojans are examined based on eight attribute categories. A matrix identifying the relationships between these attributes is defined. This matrix is used to characterize hardware trojans from both the attacker and defender perspectives. Two case studies are given to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed approach.
