Abstract
A method and system for analysis of a facility may include providing an emulation host system, first generating a golden circuit model on the emulation host system, first inserting a first hardware trojan model, first emulating operation of the golden circuit model, and second emulating operation of the first hardware trojan model. The method includes the application of operative vectors to a golden model in simulation or emulation with support of embedded activity monitors to identify which modules contribute to a given functional operation as a method to identify where trojan attacks can be placed.
