    Abstract

    We propose TrojanSAINT, a graph neural network (GNN)-based hardware Trojan (HT) detection scheme working at the gate level. Unlike prior GNN-based art, TrojanSAINT enables both pre-/post-silicon HT detection. TrojanSAINT leverages a sampling-based GNN framework to detect and also localize HTs. For practical validation, TrojanSAINT achieves on average 78% true positive rate (TPR) and 85% true negative rate (TNR), respectively, on various TrustHub HT benchmarks. For best-case validation, TrojanSAINT even achieves 98% TPR and 96% TNR on average. TrojanSAINT outperforms related prior works and baseline classifiers. Source codes and result artifacts will be released post peer-review.
