Abstract

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure can include an exemplary system, method and computer-accessible medium for camouflaging a design of an integrated circuit(s) (IC), can include, for example, receiving information related to a plurality of input combinations to the ICs, and camouflaging the design of the ICs by limiting a discriminating ability of the input combination to a predetermined constant number of incorrect assignments. An incorrect output can be intentionally produced for a predetermined constant number of secret minterms of the ICs. An output of the ICs can be restored for the secret minterms using a CamoFix block. The CamoFix block can include a CamoInputMapping block(s), a CamoSecGen block(s) or a comparator block(s).
