Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a number of components disposed at a surface of a semiconductor body and an interconnect region connecting the components into a functional circuit. A metallic shield is also produced in the interconnect region. A configurable stage is configurable to operate in a receiving antenna configuration or in a detection configuration during which the integrated circuit is configured to detect a presence of an external electromagnetic radiation representative of an attack by injection of faults.
