To add on, there are a good amount of effort put in to defending against side channel attacks, including hardware IP like [1]. However, it's not a winnable game when your adversary has access to your hardware. If they're determined enough, they can use SEM microscopes and expensive equipment to physically rewire your chip, bypassing circuitry arbitrarily.

- kragen 4y agoside channel attacks attack the other side of the specification approach from glitching attacks, where the product is allowed to perform anywhere within the specified performance range as long as it's operated under nominal conditions i think this is a much more feasible thing to defend against than glitching attacks, though still difficult for similar supply-chain reasons what you are describing is, in my book, a glitching attack, not a side channel attack
