Embodiment Construction

[0019] As used herein, "computer device" designates a consumer electronic device (e.g., smartphone, television, microwave oven, refrigerator, robot, drone, connected bicycle, automobile, airplane, etc.) that has communication resources that enable access to computing resources. Wait).

[0020] As used herein, a "physically unclonable function" (or "PUF") designates a physical function. PUFs are inherently tangible. A PUF is a hardware function that provides a response when a challenge is applied to the hardware under consideration. While the associated properties of PUFs (eg, "reliability" or "unclonability" properties) are subtle and still debated in the field, the term PUF appears to be a naming convention. In this disclosure, the method steps described do characterize PUFs. Embodiments of the present invention enable the creation of "physically unclonable functions", otherwise known as synthetic PUFs: the generally accepted properties of the PUF are matched with properti...

Abstract

There is disclosed a connected synthetic physically unclonable function(acronym CSPUF) made of a circuit configured to receive signals of one or more sensors and / or actuators in / of a computer device; determine one or more statistical properties of the noise distribution of said selected one or more of said sensors and / or actuators; receive data IN from one or more external data sources; determine one or more digital signatures (responses) from said statistical properties and said selected external data. In one embodiment, along a response R when challenged by a challenge C, the circuit is configured to receive data IN and / or to communicate data OUT from one or more external data sources. Developments describe uses and advantages of data IN and data OUT channels, e.g. static or dynamic calibration, options to disable the circuit. Other embodiments consider variants of interconnections of two CSPUF circuits, providing self-cycled, iterative, cascaded and other blockchain arrangements.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to physical functions, such as physically unclonable functions (designated hereinafter by the acronym PUF), and in particular to linked synthetic PUFs. Background technique [0002] Over the past few decades, computer security has become a major challenge. Attacks have become increasingly sophisticated and efficient. At the same time, computer science applications are expanding in scope, for example with the Internet of Things. The use of physical functions to secure computers is known in various technical fields. [0003] The existing literature on PUFs is emerging, and both the underlying PUF physical phenomena and PUF properties (eg, aging, reliability) have been studied. Several PUF-based implementations have been provided. [0004] For example, patent document US8694778B2 describes a method using a PUF device that receives a communication comprising a first challenge value, a second challenge value and a...
