A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit designed to be reconfigured by the user after manufacturing to build a System-on-Chip (SoC) embedded device. The needed logic is usually implemented as a software image and then instantiated on the FPGA to inherit the nice properties of hardware, like higher speed and better security. Unfortunately, since the image itself, e.g., a Softcore that represents a Processing Unit, is a software, it is prone to faults and vulnerabilities that manifest after instantiation on the FPGA. Unfortunately, an Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) is
