Anti-reverse engineering techniques are provided. In one aspect, a method for forming at least one feature in an insulating layer is provided. The method comprises the following steps. Ions are selectively implanted in the insulating layer so as to form at least one implant region within the insulating layer, the implanted ions being configured to alter an etch rate through the insulating layer within the implant region. The insulating layer is etched to, at the same time, form at least one void both within the implant region and outside of the implant region, wherein the etch rate through the insulating layer within the implant region is different from an etch rate through the insulating layer outside of the implant region. The void is filled with at least one conductor material to form the feature in the insulating layer.
