Claim 18:
19. A method to secure an integrated circuit, comprising:
observing a runtime behavior of an accelerator circuit, the runtime behavior comprising transmission of one or more data packets by the accelerator circuit;
identifying the runtime behavior as a disallowed misbehavior; and
performing a misbehavior response on the accelerator circuit based at least in part on a type of misbehavior of a plurality of misbehavior types to mitigate a negative impact of the disallowed misbehavior, wherein a first misbehavior type of the plurality of misbehavior types comprises:
a thermal threshold being exceeded;
a physical function of the accelerator function unit failing to respond to a memory-mapped input/output request;
a physical function request being incorrectly formatted; or
a data packet or local memory request being incorrectly formatted.
