The vast areas of applications for IoTs in future smart cities, smart transportation systems,
and so on represent a thriving surface for several security attacks with economic …

A physical unclonable function (PUF) is a device that exploits inherent randomness
introduced during manufacturing to give a physical entity a unique 'fingerprint'or trust anchor …

We show in this paper how several proposed Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) can be
broken by numerical modeling attacks. Given a set of challenge-response pairs (CRPs) of a …

Authentication is an essential cryptographic primitive that confirms the identity of parties
during communications. For security, it is important that these identities are complex, in order …

As the electronic component supply chain grows more complex due to globalization, with
parts coming from a diverse set of suppliers, counterfeit electronics have become a major …

We discuss numerical modeling attacks on several proposed strong physical unclonable
functions (PUFs). Given a set of challenge-response pairs (CRPs) of a Strong PUF, the goal …

This chapter introduces the reader to the basic concept of a physically unclonable function
or PUF. Many research results on this topic were published over recent years in a variety of …

The idea of using intrinsic random physical features to identify objects, systems, and people
is not new. Fingerprint identification of humans dates at least back to the nineteenth century …

We propose a systematic method to evaluate and compare the performance of physical
unclonable functions (PUFs). The need for such a method is justified by the fact that various …

The design of a silicon Strong Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) that is lightweight and
stable, and which possesses a rigorous security argument, has been a fundamental problem …
