Each challenge has its own details for the competition. Those details are given on the GitHub for this competition here.
Challenge 1: The first challenges will focus on leveraging generative AI to add hardware Trojans to an AES core. Three difficulties of challenge will be provided: easy, medium, and hard, with each worth increasing points. Teams can submit all three difficulties of challenge to earn the most points.
Judging Criteria
Each challenge will have its own rubric regarding how points can be awarded. Challenges will have their base functionality automatically graded, and manual judging will take place over the following days to ensure all rules were followed, as well as to award additional points for completing further objectives. These extra points will be awarded for each competition for things like “most creative use of AI”. Please refer to each challenge's rubric for how this will be done.
Each submission must also be fully open source, guidelines for this are here.
