Protecting proprietary data in an open environment
summary
efabless runs an open design platform that keeps foundry and third‑party secrets by splitting files into privileged/non‑privileged tech files, exposing only obfuscated layout layers and maglev abstract views for IP, and protecting spice models by running ngspice with disabled show/mod commands and privilege-wrapped simulations. an AutoPDK pipeline maps each foundry’s files into protected vs public sets, the marketplace copies IP into guarded directories, and uploads/downloads are filtered to prevent using the site as a data leak.
