By Technical Paper Link - 08 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "Know Time to Die – Integrity Checking for Zero Trust Chiplet-based Systems Using Between-Die Delay PUFs" by researchers at University of Massachusetts, Amherst MA, Abstract (partial): "In this paper we propose a delay-based PUF for chiplets to verify system integrity. Our technique allows a single chiplet to initiate a protocol with its neighbors to measure un... » read more

Side-channel protection for edge AI Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology built a chip that can defend against power side-channel attacks targeting machine learning computations in smartwatches, smartphones, and tablets. Side-channel attacks involve observing a facet of the device's operation, in this case power, to deduce secrets. “The goal of this project is to buil... » read more

Key Recovery for Content Protection Using Ternary PUFs Designed with Pre-Formed ReRAM
By Technical Paper Link - 19 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

RESEARCH PAPER Abstract "Physical unclonable functions, embedded in terminal devices, can be used as part of the recovery process of session keys that protect digital files. Such an approach is only valuable when the physical element offers sufficient tamper resistance. Otherwise, error correcting codes should be able to handle any variations arising from aging, and environmentally induce... » read more

The Wiretap Channel for Capacitive PUF-Based Security Enclosures
By Technical Paper Link - 19 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract: "In order to protect devices from physical manipulations, protective security enclosures were developed. However, these battery-backed solutions come with a reduced lifetime, and have to be actively and continuously monitored. In order to overcome these drawbacks, batteryless capacitive enclosures based on Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) have been developed that generate a key-e... » read more

Anti-Tamper Benefits Of Encrypted Helper-Data Images For PUFs
By Rambus - 01 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

PUFs are mixed-signal circuits which rely on variations unique to a specific chip to self-generate a digital “fingerprint.” Most PUFs require a “helper-data” image that is generated during the initial digitization process, also known as Enrollment. Leveraging the chip-unique transformation function of PUFs and encrypted helper data, an unclonable challenge-response mechanism can be impl... » read more

Power/Performance Bits: July 13

Graphene PUFs Researchers at Pennsylvania State University propose using graphene to create physically unclonable functions (PUFs) that are energy efficient, scalable, and secure against AI attacks. The team first fabricated nearly 2,000 identical graphene transistors. Despite their structural similarity, the transistors' electrical conductivity varied due to the inherent randomness arising... » read more

Stronger PUFs Researchers from Ohio State University and Potomac Research propose a new version of physical unclonable functions, or PUFs, that could be used to create secure ID cards, to track goods in supply chains, and as part of authentication applications. "There's a wealth of information in even the smallest differences found on computers chips that we can exploit to create PUFs," sai... » read more

A Novel PUF Using Stochastic Short-Term Memory Time of Oxide-Based RRAM for Embedded Applications
By Technical Paper Link - 31 Mar, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract: "RRAM suffers from poor retention with short-term memory time when using low compliance current for programing. However, the short-term memory time exhibits ideal randomness, which can be exploited as an entropy source for physically unclonable function (PUF). In this work, we demonstrated a novel PUF utilizing the stochastic short-term memory time of oxide-based RRAM. The proposed P... » read more

Hybrid Boolean Networks as Physically Unclonable Functions
By Technical Paper Link - 31 Mar, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract: "We introduce a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) based on an ultra-fast chaotic network known as a Hybrid Boolean Network (HBN) implemented on a field programmable gate array. The network, consisting of N coupled asynchronous logic gates displaying dynamics on the sub-nanosecond time scale, acts as a `digital fingerprint' by amplifying small manufacturing variations during a peri... » read more

A Novel Complementary Architecture of One-time-programmable Memory and Its Applications as Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) and One-time Password
By Technical Paper Link - 31 Mar, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract "For the first time, we proposed a 2T complementary architecture of one-time-programmable memory (OTP) in a foundry logic CMOS chip. It was then used to realize the PUF (Physical unclonable function), and the combination with the AI technology to provide a one-time password capability. At first, an OTP was developed based on a novel 2T CMOS unit cell. The experimental results show t... » read more
